 1864 Br.6370. Recut 18. Brilliant Uncirculated and close to Choice. Both the '1' and '8' are boldly repunched on this significantly rare variety. A delightfully sharp strike, virtually prooflike fields and a few hairlines sum up this coin's visual attractions. The late Walter Breen theorized that a very small fraction of an already small total mintage of 2,630 were of this distinctive variety, which is in increasingly great demand today.
