Lot 235
"1815" Turban Head Cent G5. The obverse is from an 1812 S-290 with a skillfully altered date while the reverse is from a large cent of undetermined date, probably 1816-1820. While most of the "1815" cents are Turban Head cents with an altered date, this one is a very well made sandwich with the Turban Head obverse inserted into a later date cent with the obverse side hollowed out. A neat fantasy piece to fill that very elusive 1815 hole.
Estimated Value $20-UP.
