Quality Three Cents "Burnett's Cocoaine Kalliston"

EP-39, HB-74, S-45, Three Cents, BURNETT'S COCOAINE KALLISTON, Choice About New.
Rated a Rarity-6 (16 to 20 known) According to Fred Reed. The fresh, clean and vivid red stamp is perfectly centered with and outstanding in its appearance. It is under unbroken very clear mica, only the faintest trivial natural, internal laminations noted near the moons edges. The case is a natural light chestnut in color with nearly full original luster present on the reverse case and the super sharp reverse legends. Little, if any, actual wear found at all on this piece and a bit of original Silvering remains within the protected areas of the central text. A top quality example of this popular Merchant, and one with impressive eye appeal.
