Bar Cent. K.1, M.JAB-2. Brass. Uncirculated. 111.5 gns. Spotty. Possibly unique. Woodward wrote in his sale of April 28, 1863 that he instructed George H. Lovett to strike only one each in nickel, brass and tin. Those three pieces were purchased by Charles I. Bushnell and sold as Lots 1162-1164 in the Chapmans' Bushnell sale (1882). This brass piece may (or may not be) the Bushnell specimen.
Ex New Netherlands Coin Company; previous provenance uncertain.
