(Sold on ebay November, 2019) The next to last year of issue, and undoubtedly put away in 1857 as the series came to an end, as a souvenir of the vanishing Type. No real signs of actual circulation other than a few very small insignificant marks - most likely just chucked into a “can” lot by someone at the time. As typical for the series, a Mintage of only 40,000 originally, yet this is a “common date”. A nice original example to represent the Braided Hair Type.
