Lot 2074
1860 Type 1. NGC graded AU-58. Type 1. Semi-reflective surfaces. A scarce Red Book variety. The old-style or Type 1 reverse of 1859/60/61 is most readily identified by the long arrowheads. This is from the hub of 1840-58, where the lowest arrowhead almost touches CA and the eagle's talons are closed.
Date logotype punched lightly into the die. First digit repunched at bottom. The logotype this year illustrates the 8 leaning very slightly to the left, and the base of the 6 considerably higher than the base of the adjacent 0. Pop 8; 7 finer, 5 in 61, 1 in 62, 1 in 63.
Estimated Value $2,500 - 2,800.
