Copper 4 the Weekend

Got to keep these threads going, folks. Stay positive
F-200A-3a Copper PE Dunn & Co's MA PCGS MS66BN

Here is a rare Merriam piece, identified as a separate die from F-200A-2a by the number of leaves in the wreath. Electric blues over brown glossy surfaces. I cannot imagine a finer example exists of the handful known.
Post your coppers for the weekend, and everyone be safe!

Cornelius Vanderbilt's People's Line of Steam Boats - Fuld NY630BD-1a

I just picked this up. I'm still looking up more information on Vanderbilt's steam boat line but the history looks rich so far. Initially, it started out servicing only New York and Albany but branched out to other locations after. It's mentioned on a few Wikipedia pages.

Any one know who the die sinker was for this?

I checked the store card book but it does not mention who the die sinker was. Here is a link to an article about the People's Line from the Summer 1973 issue of the Civil War Token Journal: https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/book/515616?page=45

Nice! Here's the first two pages of the article.

I wonder if it's possible to identify thee die sinker via the curled devices which I've noticed on other tokens.
