Description

A dealer gives the legend of R. & W. Jenkinson's die pair 2 simply as the firm name with Alleghany, Pennsylvania, the spelling on the die. This copper (a) piece is Fuld PA-13E-2a, which NGC dates 1861-65; the copper-nickel 2d shares these dies. Pennsylvania, town 13 for Allegheny, merchant E and die pair 2 make up the rest of the number. Both spellings of the town, Allegheny and Alleghany, turn up on cards of the period.
