Highly Rare Drake's Thirty Cents Drake's Plantation Bitters. 30 Cents. HB-108, EP-177, S-76. Extremely Fine. A high-end rarity in this trove of Drake's Plantation Bitters encased we are offering with this 30 Cents piece being one of just three we are aware of. Formerly part of the Ford collection where it was offered alongside another of equal quality. The other was sold within the Mayer collection in 2007 and it too rivaled this offering in appeal. Ample silvering is retained at the case mostly nested at the center and an attractive orange color remains on the 30 Cents Franklin stamp. Mostly problem free and clear mica with just some minor blemishes at the peripheries.
