1849/8 N-8 R2 Overdate 9 over 8 VF25. Off Center. Glossy medium brown and chocolate with dark steel brown toning on the high points. No spots or notable contact marks. E-MDS, die state b, with the repunching at the right bottom of the 9 clear. Struck 5-10% off center to K-8, not far enough to lose any of the legend. Removed from an NGC slab graded VF35 (NGC label included, and the label incorrectly says this cent is "Broadstruck" rather than off center). DWH #2263.
Estimated Value $600-UP.
