Judd-352, Pollock-424 variety, considered to be High Rarity-6.

A striking pattern similar to the regular issue, but with three major differences:

  1. The Bronzed Copper Composition
  2. The GOD OUR TRUST motto above the reverse eagle.
  3. This one is way rarer with not more than 20 known.

Ex Harry Bass Jr. Collection where it was described as follows: “One of the very nicest we have seen of any bronzed proof.” Also nice – the magnifiers Mr. Bass clipped to this eyeglasses that protruded out like the elevators on the front of the Wright Flyer:
