Description

Die pair 3 of Peck & Orvis is Fuld WI-45A-3a, struck in copper; the letter a records the metal. Baraboo, the seat of Sauk County, is Fuld's Wisconsin town 45, and A is the firm's merchant letter. The card is dated 1861-65 in NGC's attribution. Elsewhere in the firm's run, die pair 1 carries the year 1864 and a reverse die with Abraham Lincoln, as a dealer's listing of that pair shows.
