Item Description
1.75" dia. Superb color and design with light beams from the Statue of Liberty's torch highlighting oval photos. This design was also used for exceedingly rare 1908 Taft Jugate (Hake # 1 with 2004 Revised Prices value of $4500, as well as the Bryan mate). Additional gold text below reads "Oct. 13/1858-1908/Quincy/Illinois." There was once a small fabric loop held by the collet at the top edge but this is now gone. Mirror silvering is about 97% complete. Celluloid has tiny surface wear marks showing only in reflected light. An outstanding rarity, only the second we've seen with our last exceeding $1400. Displays Mint. Also see Douglas ferrotype # 171 and Lincoln items # 172-177.
