Lot 55
1806 C-4 R1 Repunched Large 6 with Stems EF45. Rotated Reverse. Glossy steel brown and chocolate with frosty golden light steel brown in protected areas. Essentially flawless except for some loose dirt caked around the devices. EDS, Manley state 1.0. The bust tip is not fully struck as are the top leaves of the wreath (as usual) but the strike is better than normal for the variety. The repunching on the 6 is sharp and the reverse is rotated 45 degrees CW (which caused the weakness on the bust tip). A nice piece, perhaps a bit better than the assigned grade if given a proper bath.
Estimated Value $350-UP.
