Lot 150
1804 C-9 R2 VG10. Double Struck Off Center. Glossy dark olive and chocolate. The surfaces are decent but a strong glass reveals traces of extremely faint roughness, mostly on the left side of the reverse. No verdigris and only a few minor marks, including a rim bruise at IC in AMERICA. Double struck. One strike was 50% off center to K-10.5 and the other was centered on the planchet. Bold evidence of the off center impression remains on both sides, including "04" at the lowest curl, Ms Liberty's face left of the L in LIBERTY, and the A in HALF over the E in UNITED. Davy #04.9.6.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
