1799/8 S-188 Electrotype Copy VF20. Glossy dark olive brown with lighter steel brown high points. An extremely well executed electrotype copy, and dangerous as such. You have to search long and hard with a strong glass to detect any edge seam or underlying base metal. The "clunk" sound when tapped helps confirm the copy status, however. DWH #3063.
Estimated Value $50-UP.
