Description

Fuld KY-480B-6a is copper (a), die pair 6 of John W. Lee of Lexington, Kentucky. In the code, 480 stands for Lexington and B for Lee, the merchant; the title and NGC put the card at 1861-65. On Lee's die pairs 4 and 5, dealers read him as confectioner, with milk by the pint on one and by the quart on the other. Brass (6b) and tin-plated (6i) strikings share these dies.
