Lot 379		1817 Struck Copy from Handmade Dies VG7. Glossy chocolate brown. The strike is uneven, stronger on the right half of both sides. The date is weak but readable.

Lot 382		1818 N-7 R1 Double Struck G4. The obverse is slightly better, the reverse a bit weaker. Glossy chocolate and steel brown. No roughness, just a few minor marks. Double struck. The first strike was normal and centered on the planchet, but it failed to eject before a new blank planchet was inserted into the coining chamber and another strike occurred. The reverse was struck a second time by the reverse die but the coin was rotated about 20 degrees before the second impression. F AM from the first strike shows at AME of the second (the dominant) strike. The obverse was pressed against a 10-15% off center blank planchet during the second strike creating an off-center obverse brockage on that planchet while leaving a clear impression of the blank planchet on the obverse of this cent. Another obvious mint error in this extensive collection. Estimated Value $100-UP. Ex Carvin Goodridge collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $86
Lot 383		1818 N-8 R3 EF45+. Choice glossy chocolate and steel brown with frosty lighter steel brown and tan toning faded down from mint color in some of the protected areas.

Lot 394		1819/8 N-1 R1 Overdate 9 over 8 G6 but Holed. Off Center Obverse Brockage. Glossy steel brown and chocolate with dark bluish steel covering the "reverse." Smooth surfaces but there is a rather large hole carefully drilled in the field off the chin. A clunker except for one important thing: it is an off-center obverse brockage. The obverse was struck by the die about 10% off center to K-5.5 while the reverse was struck against the obverse of a previously struck cent an equal amount off center.

Otherwise a small spot of darker toning in the field off the chin is the only mark. Frosty steel brown and chocolate with underlying very faded red showing through in the protected areas on both sides. Nicely struck E-MDS. Very attractive in spite of the scratches. Estimated Value $200-UP. Ex H. I. M. Auctions, 7/31/1983:979A-Carvin Goodridge collection (lot ticket included). View details and enlarged photos	Unsold

Lustrous chocolate brown on the obverse where there are a couple tiny peeps of mint red; the reverse is choice lustrous steel brown with 50% of the original red remaining.
