Proof Copper 1870 Standard Silver Half Dollar
Finest RB Proof Certified at PCGS 1870 Pattern Half Dollar. Standard Silver. Judd-929, Pollock-1034. Copper. Reeded Edge. Coin Turn. Rarity-7. Proof-65 RB PCGS. CAC. Obv: William Barber’s seated Liberty left, liberty pole behind, left hand holds laurel sprig, right hand rests atop shield, raised LIBERTY on draped ribbon, 13 stars around, date below. Rev: bold cereal wreath, 50 / CENTS / 1870 within on three lines, STANDARD at upper rim. At first glance what appear to be medium orange-brown surfaces with nothing much to recommend them save for reflectivity, suddenly become a veritable rainbow of piercing iridescence in a bright light source. Bold violet, neon blue, bright rose, sea-green, and numerous variants spring to light in a colorful display. One of only seven grading events for J-929 listed by PCGS, including two BN; three RB, as here; and one RD, see below. Choice and appealing where it counts: to our eyes, as well as those of PCGS and CAC.
From the Denali Collection.
PCGS Population: 1; none finer within the RB designation. There are no BN examples at the Proof-65 level or finer, and but a solitary RD specimen which is graded Proof-65 RD.
PCGS #71174
