1870 Pattern Half Dollar. Judd-935, Pollock-1041. Rarity-6+. Copper. Reeded Edge. Proof-67 BN (PCGS). CAC. Obv: William Barber's seated Liberty facing left, an olive branch in her left hand, her right hand supporting a federal shield with a ribbon inscribed LIBERTY crossing the shield. LIBERTY is expressed in raised letters. A liberty pole with cap is behind the portrait, 13 stars encircle the periphery, and the date 1870 is below. Rev: The same design that the Mint used to produce regular issue 1870 Liberty Seated half dollars. A Superb Gem with bright blue iridescent toning, changing to deep maroon with differing angles of light. Absolutely pristine with sharp design details. This pattern half dollar numbers among the very finest of more than a dozen specimens of Judd-935, per the uspatterns.com website. An outstanding numismatic provenance will surely result in even stronger competition between advanced numismatists competing over the offering.
