Republic copper Pattern 1/8 Real (?) 1826 AU - Cleaned, KM-Unlisted. Produced for an uncertain denomination with the most recent appearance that we are aware of being a silver striking offered as a part of the Norweb Collection (Christie's 11/85 - Lot 270). Previous to that, a copper example (possibly this piece) was offered as part of the Guttag Collection (# 3065). An intriguing early Republic piece that is obviously very rare.
Estimate: 1000-1200 USD
