Description

Fuld MI-225AF-6a, the copper (a) die pair 6 of F. Geiss & Bro's in Detroit, Michigan, is dated only to the 1861-65 bracket. Detroit is town 225 and AF the merchant code; the brass card of these dies is 6b. Dealers report that the code is being reorganised: a brass card now listed as MI-225AFa-2b was formerly MI-225AF-3b, and its die reads F. Geiss with groceries and provisions.
