<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JeffC, post: 7831707, member: 90913&quot;]This year, the Smithsonian released a privately struck medal whose design incorporated two different coins.&nbsp; The obverse shows the obverse of the 1878 $1 design by Charles Barber, and the reverse shows the reverse of the 1891 proposal by William Barber, the son. Both proposals, as we now know, were rejected in favor of Morgan&#039;s design.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1345898[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Upon seeing this, I became curious about the sides of the coins that were not available in this commemorative, meaning the reverse of that 1878 and the obverse of that 1891.&nbsp; But a Google search was fruitless.&nbsp; I couldn&#039;t find what those two proposed Barber $1 designs look like, in their entirety.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can you share a link wherein I can see both sides of each of these coins by the father and son?&nbsp; Or maybe you might somehow have a replica tribute?</p><p><br /></p><p>Finally - one more question.&nbsp; On that NGC label, it says &quot;1878 m.&quot;&nbsp; What does the &quot;m&quot; mean? </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
