<B>1878 S$1 Goloid Dollar, Judd-1562, Pollock-1753, R.6-7, PR65 Red and Brown PCGS.</B></I> This goloid dollar pattern features Liberty facing left on the obverse with E PLURIBUS UNUM above and the date below. A description of metallic composition is encompassed in a solid wreath on the reverse. The description reads: GOLOID./ 1 GOLD./ 24 SILVER./ .9 FINE./ 258 GRAMS. Around the wreath are the legends UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and ONE DOLLAR. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. According to the invaluable USPatterns.com website, more than a dozen pieces are known of this pattern, which would be in line with a high R.6 rating. This is a sharply struck coin, with iridescent toning evident over its mirrored surfaces. Despite the designation, there is only underlying red that can still be seen when the angled just so under a light. Nevertheless, this piece has terrific eye appeal.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
