Description

Fuld KY-480B-5b, brass (b), is John W. Lee's die pair 5 from Lexington, Kentucky: town 480, merchant B, bracketed 1861-65 by title and NGC. These are the quart-of-milk dies. A dealer cataloguing the copper example names Lee on them as confectioner of Lexington and gives the measure as a quart, where die pair 4 offers a pint. Tin-plated and copper pieces share the pair, as 5i and 5a.
