1861 Cincinnatus of America - John K. Curtis Store Card. Musante GW-436, Baker-529A, Fuld-NY-630Sa-1a, Miller-NY 172. Copper. MS-64 RB (NGC). 32 mm. Warm autumn-brown patina mingles with original mint orange color on both sides of this smooth and inviting piece. Direct lighting calls forth not only iridescent salmon pink undertones, but also appreciable reflectivity from the fields. A lovely copper example of a type that is seldom offered in any composition. Ex Virgil Brand Collection.
