<p>[QUOTE=&quot;1865King, post: 5361974, member: 103207&quot;]Judd stands for Dr. J. Hewitt Judd.&nbsp;&nbsp; He cataloged and published a book on US pattern coins in the 1950&#039;s.&nbsp; The term Judd or J with a number after it refers to the numbers Dr. Judd used in his book.&nbsp; Those numbers are now being used to describe pattern coin produced by the US mint.&nbsp; You could see a post like J-424 or Judd-423 indicating how the coin was cataloged by Dr. Judd.&nbsp; A similar thing was done by Gerry Fortin when referring to Seated Dimes.&nbsp; If you see F 101 for a seated dime that means Gerry Fortin gave that number for a particular die set used to produce seated dimes.&nbsp;&nbsp; The same has been done for large cents.&nbsp;&nbsp; Also with other coins.&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#039;s a method of cataloging.&nbsp; I attached two pictures showing Judd numbers being used.[ATTACH=full]1227650[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1227661[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
