Description

A proof impression of J-740, the penultimate variety in the 1869 quarter pattern program. This near-final entry represents one of the last design concepts tested during the most productive year of quarter experimentation in the Reconstruction era. The design featured on J-740 may represent one of the two or three strongest candidates emerging from the twenty-one variety evaluation process.

Rarity Notes

R.6 to R.7. Approximately 10-15 examples estimated.
