What The Experts Say...


HT 53, Low 41.
This is another of the so-called Bushnell types showing a sinking ship with legend *VAN BUREN * METALLIC 1837 CUREENCY. We note only four auction records in the past fifty years. The Garrett piece was resold three times. It is doubtful that more than six specimens are known.
