<B>1879 10C Washlady Ten Cents, Judd-1584, Pollock-1777, Low R.6, PR67 NGC.</B></I> Barber's famous "Washlady" design, a term that has been used to describe the liberally-locked portrait since the nineteenth century. The head of Liberty faces left surrounded by the legend and the date is situated below. She is wearing a headband inscribed LIBERTY. The headband is ornamented with ears of wheat, cotton leaves, and bolls. On the reverse, the denomination is encircled by a ring of dots that is flanked by the ornamentally framed motto E PLURIBUS UNUM and a wreath of cotton and wheat. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. While the central obverse and reverse show some design weakness, this is a Superb proof with nearly flawless surfaces beneath iridescent toning.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
