Splendid semi-prooflike near Unc 1873 quarter with reverse peripheral legends effaced and hand-engraved " U.S. Ship of the Line Virginia. Keel Laid, 1821. Broke Up, 1874. " Smashed presumably on a reef. Superbly hand-engraved and certainly unique. No evidence on the reeded edge of any suspension attachment ever having been present.
