Description
NEW YORK. New York. 1876 Daly's 5th Avenue Theatre. Rulau NY-NY 60. Silver. Mint State.
74 mm x 28 mm, rectangular. 15 grams, .925 fine, 0.446 troy ounces ASW. Outstanding quality for this intriguing and exceedingly rare type. Bright and frosty in finish, the surfaces are further enhanced by delicate iridescent toning in champagne-apricot. All design features are crisp, both sides free of significant handling marks. Concentrations of small, vertical voids in the planchet at the left and right obverse are as made and mentioned solely for accuracy. A rare item, in the form of a theater ticket, issued to some of the female attendees of the 200th performance of the play Pique at Daly's 5th Avenue Theatre in New York City. Rulau (2004) states that fewer than six examples of this ticket survive.
Estimate: $500
