Description

John Engel's die pair 2 in copper is catalogued as Fuld NJ-220A-2a. The prefix NJ is New Jersey, 220 is Elizabeth in Fuld's town list, A is Engel's merchant letter, and the letter a means copper. PCGS and NGC agree on the bracket 1861-65, and the edge is plain. A dealer transcribes this pair as Engel's merchant tailor die for Elizabeth Port opposite an eagle perched on a globe with the words "Union For Ever".
