Description

Brass (b) strikings of E.W. Atwood's die pair 1 are listed as Fuld CT-35A-1b, under Bridgeport, Connecticut. The code reads CT for the state, 35 for Bridgeport and A for Atwood. NGC brackets this brass card 1861-65, though its copper twin is dated 1863. On a copper piece from the same dies, a dealer records the legend as books and newspapers, with United States 1863 on the reverse.
