Description

Fuld RI-700D-2d puts H. Dobson's Providence die against an older reverse: in a dealer's write-up of die pair 2, the other side is die 1428, an East Boston die dated 1837, while Dobson's side reads Union 1864. This example is copper-nickel (d), dated 1864, with an edge PCGS calls plain. The number breaks down as Rhode Island, Providence (town 700), merchant D, die pair 2.
