JAB-29 DANIEL WEBSTER TIN #2
|
25mm - 3 struck by Bolen
Both dies were cut in 1867 and sold to J.W. Kline in 1872. They are currently in the ANS collection.
According to the AJN list, Bolen struck 3 examples in tin. Kline also struck a few examples in this metal. It is fairly easy to tell the restrikes from the originals. The originals are 2.2 to 3.0 mm thick. The restrikes are only 1.5 to 2.0 mm in thickness. The example pictured is a Kline restrike, graded MS-62 PL by NGC.
Heritage sold a NGS-61 example in their June 2016 auction for $376. The example pictured was acquired for $114 in the August 2021 Heritage auction, lot 91689.
