1879 Half Dollar in Copper
Judd-1600, PR67+ Red and Brown
Morgan Liberty Head, Finest Certified
1879 50C Morgan Half Dollar, Judd-1600, Pollock-1795, Low R.7,
PR67+ Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. The portrait is the
same as on the standard Morgan dollar, except larger. The border
arrangement of stars and E PLURIBUS UNUM differs. The reverse
features a large perched eagle with unfurled wings. The eagle
clutches three large arrows and an olive branch. IN GOD WE TRUST is
widely spread around the eagle. Struck in copper with a reeded
edge. The pattern is also known in silver (Judd-1599). Judd-1600
usually has a soft strike on the central obverse, but the present
coin shows only minor incompleteness. Colorfully toned in
cherry-red, orange-gold, ice-blue, and lavender. No contact or
carbon is visible. As of (10/20), PCGS certified seven examples of
Judd-1600; two as Brown, four as Red and Brown, and one as Red.
Among those pieces, the present lot has the single finest numerical
grade, with a PR66 Red specimen in second place. NGC has certified
four pieces in all grades and colors, none finer than PR66
(10/20).Collecting Patterns – A Brief History and Commentary
