<p>[QUOTE="BRandM, post: 2123410, member: 22729"]The die sinker for the Bode reverse (Stag's head) is Louis Roloff who "signed " his work "J. Roloff". Roloff was a New York sinker working at 1 New Chambers. There are only three patriotic dies positively attributed to him, 58, 58A, and 439, but he was more active in cutting store card dies. It's thought that Roloff had some working relationship with another New York sinker named Emil Sigel who worked at 177 William St. Unlike Roloff, Sigel was a prolific maker of CWT cards.</p><p>The unusual size of 24mm was a characteristic of Roloff's work.
