GROUP A – T touches walk - Br 527. LC-1B3. - Die more deteriorated than previous. Spike on M not present and instead the earliest hints of a lighter die flaw now evident, extending from upper left serif to the walk. A globular die flaw has developed on the outside of the right chimney, a little over halfway up. Unc. Close to 70% red, with minor staining in legends. Rev. has two small dark spots near rim.

The consistent diagnostic with this obverse die is a flaw from the upper right of T in Montreal, which connects with the lower right corner of the walk before the bank building. A light crack tracking horizontally from the bottom left serif of the B in Bank, and a small crack linking the middle of OV in Province are also omnipresent. Additional flaws are noted for each specimen as they developed. (Previous offerings from Cooper collection: GBA 12 lot 124; GBA 13 lots 740-741). Courteau 55.

Note: this lot is part of The Richard Cooper Collection.
