1880 Goloid Metric Dollar in Aluminum
Judd-1647, PR65 Cameo
Only Five Known

1880 $1 Goloid Metric Dollar, Judd-1647, Pollock-1847, High R.7, PR65 Cameo PCGS. This rare and popular pattern features the head of Liberty used on Barber's famous $50 half union of 1877, with E PLURIBUS UNUM above and the date 1880 below, with 13 stars arranged 7x6 on the sides. The reverse displays a circle of dots in the center enclosing 895.8 S./4.2-G./100-C./ 25 GRAMS, all within an open wreath of cotton and wheat. DEO EST GLORIA above in cartouche, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA/ONE DOLLAR around. The same reverse as that used on Judd-1617 of 1879. Struck in aluminum with a reeded edge. The present example is a fully struck and sharply struck Gem with outstanding white on black contrast between the frosty portrait and the mirrored obverse field. Imperfections are limited to a faint die crack running from the edge between stars 9 and 10 to Liberty's nearest back curl, plus minor corrosion above 0 in the date and midway between 0 and star 13. USPatterns.com has identified only five different Judd-1647 specimens (6/25).
