Description

Fuld NY-630BZ-1do is a copper-nickel (d) overstrike from Peter Warmkessel's die pair 1, the final o meaning it was struck over another coin. PCGS names the host as an 1863 cent; a dealer's example sat on an 1862 copper-nickel Indian Head cent with much of the cent still visible. Fuld assigns 630 to New York and BZ to the merchant. The 1850 is the die's establishment year; NGC brackets the card 1861-65.
