Lot 354
1818 N-3 R3 Obverse Brockage G6. Sharpness F12 or better but covered with fine porosity. No verdigris and the only mark is a dull dent in the center of the reverse. Slightly glossy medium brown with darker olive brown toning in protected areas. This was an obverse brockage strike that was positioned slightly off center to K-7. The obverse was struck against the die but the reverse was struck against the obverse of a previously struck piece leaving an incuse impression of the obverse. There is no rotation or shift between the normal and incuse (brockage) impressions. A neat type of mint error. Estimate Value $300 - UP
