<B>1860 P$5 Five Dollar, Judd-272, Pollock-320, Low R.6, PR65 Brown PCGS.</B></I> The obverse introduces the right-facing bust of Liberty with three large stars on the cap, a familiar motif with the Standard Silver series, and first used on Judd-271 and Judd-272. The date is quite small. The reverse features a small eagle with a curved shield, clutching the banner E PLURIBUS UNUM in its beak along with the usual olive branch and arrows in its claws. Identical to Judd-283 except for the change in date. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. These are struck on eagle diameter planchets as part of an anti-counterfeiting effort. This design also has a die blunder with the V in FIVE actually an upside down A. Even chocolate-brown patina; there are a few light specks of darker color scattered over each side, but they fail to inhibit the eye appeal of this lovely pattern.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
