Post your coppers for the weekend ladies and gents...
F-630AK-2a Copper PE Hussey's NY PCGS MS66RB ex. Bowers
An old favorite. Hussey ran a courier service in NYC during the Civil War, running documents and parcels to businesses and financial institutions of the day.
A relatively common CWT, but this is the finest example I've seen by a long shot. The locomotive reverse is one of the classic dies in the series.

Time is Money. Exigency. - F-630AK-1d - Copper-Nickel - PCGS MS65 - Ex-Rossa, Bowers, DCW
This is copper-nickel so partially copper
This used to be in @DCW 's collection so I'm glad I was able to pick it up.
Of note, the lathe lines aren't noticeable on the horse and rider side but are on the one posted in the OP. I wonder why that's the case.
A beauty, and unlike the copper version your Cu-Ni strike is very rare!
Check this one out speaking of lathe lines (also very rare):

I had all these sent to CAC.
These two I need to send also.

A recent pickup for me. Rare variety. Finest of three known and the only one without edge damage.

Speaking of lathe lines, my lighting cannot capture them but goes all the way around on the obverse eagle
as well as some of the verbiage(reverse). I absolutely love this 1850's E. L. Percy Troy, NY. also, couldn't make up their minds on how to spell TRAVELLING or TRAVELING
