Lot Description

A magnificently toned example of this scarce die marriage.  A kaleidoscope of iridescent colors graces the surfaces.  Striking weakness at the rims and in the drapery folds is typical.  Early die states of the O.136, with the top of an 8 in the dentils, are rare, with a BHNC rarity rating of R.6-.   Estimate: $2,000 to $2,500
