New York--Albany. Undated (1861-1865) Joseph McBurney. Fuld-010C-1a. Rarity-3. Copper. 20 mm--20% Brockage Reverse--AU-53 (PCGS).This handsome, fully original piece features a blend of golden-tan and rose-brown patina. Light surface build up in the protected areas around some of the design elements is mentioned solely for accuracy. Overall striking detail is bold, the upper right obverse (mounted as the reverse in the PCGS holder) is obscured by a clear brockage. Although the 2014 edition of the Fuld reference on Civil War store cards makes mention of a full brockage error of this type (Fuld-010C-2a), this partial brockage is unlisted therein. Sure to catch the eye of specialized collectors.
