Scarce Ten Cents J. GAULT With "Ribbed Frame" Type
EP-117, HB-134, S-97a, Reed JG10RB. Ten Cents. J. GAULT. "Ribbed Frame" Variety Major Type. Very Fine.
This scarce, always popular with collectors, "Ribbed Frame" major listed Type is evenly circulated having been passed through many hands for use as Emergency Currency small change use during the Civil War era. The green George Washington 10 1861 issue US Postage Stamp is seen under unbroken mica, which shows handling in circulation with the stamp a bit dull. The "Ribbing" on the front two "moons" consists of fine horizontal lines on the entire obverse of the encasement and are clearly visible. The case is a pleasing brassy-tan in color with all its legends on the reverse sharp and clear.
