<B>1837 3C Feuchtwanger Three Cent MS61 NGC.</B></I> Low-119, HT-265, R.7. Dr. Feuchtwanger's German-silver 1837 cents are common, but this is not the case for his three cent varieties. HT-262, which emulates the New York state coat of arms, is scarce. The eagle three cent dies, HT-263 and HT-265 are even more difficult to locate, particularly HT-265, which curiously presents the denomination as "3 THREE CENTS." This ungainly designation may account for its rarity. This sharply struck and satiny piece has cream-gray fields and some russet-gray toning in protected areas. A few nearly imperceptible hairlines determine the grade.<BR><I>Ex: Virgil Brand; Donald Miller; Rossa & Tannenbaum; John J.
