1867 Very Choice Brilliant Proof. A veil of intermingled rose, emerald-russet, and pale blue iridescence bathes either side. The underlying devices are very assertive, and the fields quite smooth in appearance. Just 20,000 circulation strikes and 625 Proofs were minted of this very scarce date.
Huntington & Sun City Collections (Stack's, January 19, 1994, lot 248).
