Description

J.S. Queeby of Peru, Indiana, merchant B in town 740, used die pair 5 for Fuld IN-740B-5a, a copper card (a) that NGC brackets 1861-65. A dealer's catalog entry gives this merchant die as “J. S. Queeby Dealer in Notions, Peru Indiana” and notes it was struck from a rusted obverse die. On Queeby's pair 2 the rust shows on the reverse instead.
