Here is a great CREB from my collection since I finally got an upgrade. A nice dark green (harder to find than the typical light yellow-greens) in the [210] variant. Image above is in full lighting and it still doesn't wash out or seem pastel like most CREBS. Embossed: (F-Crown) [Number]/(Arc)W. BROOKFIELD/45 CLIFF ST/N.Y. (R-Crown) (Arc)PAT'D NOV. 13H 1883/FEB. 12H 1884 {MLOD}. Shop number 10. Some scattered seed bubbles and the only flaw is simply an open base bubble. We'll call it VNM to be safe. Also has a small olive snot 'comet' directly above the front embossing and trailing around the threads. Embossing is kind of weak - but the color is pretty bold for a CREB and since my replacement was a great deal - I'll let this one go for $140 shipped, - SOLD, thanks for looking.
