Description

A proof striking of J-730, the tenth variety reaching the midpoint of the twenty-one variety 1869 quarter program. The central position of J-730 in the series may mark a transition between the broad exploration of the early entries and the more focused refinement of the later varieties. By the midpoint of such an extensive program, the most promising design directions would typically have been identified.

Rarity Notes

R.6. Estimated 15-20 examples survive.
