Owner Comments:

Uniface punch tag with Cascades in Center.

This one is imprinted "Mary Ground - Hagerstown MD - 1904".

Hendershott distinguishes two varieties, H-47-30 and H-47-40, but does not clearly describe the distinguishing features. NGC has designated this as H-47-41, as it is imprinted with a different name from the one shown in Hendershott.

Kreuger, however, lists Krueger-290 and Krueger-291, and identifies the distinctions as slightly different size lettering and a small projection from the left building corner.

This punch tag is a clear example of Krueger-290, with larger lettering and lacking any upward projection from the building leftmost upper corner.

Compare with my blank specimen designated H-47-30, which is an example of Krueger-291.
