- Tompkins Die Stage 1/2, Rea et al. Die State b. <strong>Tompkins Plate Coin</strong>. Richly original surfaces exhibit glints of peripheral steel and russet on otherwise pewter gray patina. This is about as nice as they come for a Draped Bust quarter in Choice VF, the typical striking softness evident at central and upper reverse, but the balance of both sides boldly defined and the surfaces absolutely free of troublesome marks.<p>Struck after both remarriages of the reverse die in the 1806 B-5 pairing, this coin exhibits a retained cud at the border outside the letters ST in STATES. In the terminal state of this die, before its final retirement, this break would shift up and become a full cud (see below, next lot). The obverse is a workhorse die that is also seen in the 1806 B-7, B-8 and B-10 pairings.<p><strong>Steve M. Tompkins Commentary:</strong> Another ex Reiver coin that I knew I would have little chance of upgrading. As predicted, even after almost 20 years I never did. That's ok, as it is a nice mid grade example that no one should be ashamed to own.
