Lot 1080
1862 Pattern Eagle, Judd-298, Pollock-357, Rarity-6. Copper, reeded edge. . J-298. PCGS graded Proof 65 Brown. This is one of the finest graded by PCGS, with only one other coin graded this high by that service. Toned a deep mahogany red on both sides, as always seen. A few trivial small spots are noted. Clean for the grade, without handling marks or other impairments. As a pattern issue, the only change from the regular dies was the addition of the motto "GOD OUR TRUST" above the eagle on the reverse, and the planchet choice of copper instead of gold. Put away some time ago, as the paper envelope that this came with states the price of $60.
Estimated Value $3,000 - 4,000.
With a small paper envelope with the price $60, from some decades back.
