Description
1861 $2 1/2 Old Reverse, Type One MS64+ graded by PCGS and CAC Approved.
The final year to use the Reverse of 1858, and a very scarce hubbing variant. The old hub is distinguished by the lowest arrowhead almost touching the CA in AMERICA. The space between the arrowheads is also more closed than on the new hub, the lettering is larger and less chunky, and the period after the D is more distant. The surfaces are bright and lustrous with just a tinge of reddish peripheral color. Well struck, there are no mentionable abrasions present on either side.
