Description
A proof striking of the J-628 Shield nickel pattern, this piece continues the systematic 1868 design study. The mid-range position of J-628 in the year's experimental sequence places it among a group of varieties that may represent the most refined versions of proposed modifications, building on concepts tested in earlier entries and informing the final entries in the series. The proof format preserves fine die details that reveal the specific character of each experimental variation.
