Description

Fuld AL-425A-1a is a copper (a) store card of White & Swann, struck for Huntsville, Alabama and dated 1864. Alabama cards take the state prefix AL, Fuld gives Huntsville the town number 425, the firm is lettered A, and the dies form die pair 1. A dealer's catalog entry for a copper piece from these dies reads the firm's name with Huntsville and the year 1864, matching NGC. Union troops first occupied Huntsville in April 1862.
