Major General Jacob Brown. J.MI.11. White metal. 64.6 mm. Choice Uncirculated. Prooflike, with brightly reflective fields and frosty central devices. Some minor staining. Struck from perfect dies, not rusted and obverse rim unbroken. Extremely rare: Carlson noted only one auction record for a white metal Brown and wrote in 1981 that there were no records of one struck after 1854. Missing from Dreyfuss in this metal.
Ex Kessler-Spangenberger Collection (NASCA, April 28, 1981, lot 1658).
