How about a Longacre splasher?? If Lustig joins in, I'll confess upfront it's not really a pattern......

Can they make 10,000 of something and it still be a pattern? (Nearly every reference I have seen to this calls it a pattern) Not a US issue, but at least depicting a US president. Same size and composition as US 90% silver half dollar.
Ed- Thanks for posting the most outstanding Schoolgirl dollar in existence!! I just wish the images were larger. Don't stop now I know you have more where that came from!
Broadstruck - you're right - never looked at it that way!

I bought this pattern from Larry Hanks a few years back.
By the way, it sold at Heritage in June 2004 for $11,500. I think I was given a fair price for this piece. It now satisfies my long time desire to own a "flowing hair" design. It is now stickered bt CAC.
In fact, I like this more than the $4 Stella. Is that my imagination or wishful thinking?????
Take a look at this pattern (engraved by William Barber) and compare it to the flowinghair $4 Stella of 1879 and 1880 (engraved by Charles Barber)!

The only pattern I ever cared to own, and one I wanted even when I was a kid and read about it in CoinAge.
Because I like variety so much, I could be a pattern collector, unfortunately that would limit my collecting to about two pieces a year.

I will never, EVER, get bored looking at this set with its original holder.
That's absolutely spectacular

That's cool, I didn't even know that existed. For the record I was talking about the 1860 half dime pattern. My favorite.

simply stunning boiler...
Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
Here is a pop 1 (in all grades) $20 aluminum die trial from 1872. J-1254.
Also have a pop 1 $10 aluminum die trial from 1874. J 1380. Both are graded PCGS PR65.
I will not allow these patterns to come out of these holders even for a trueview picture.
