Lot 124
1795 C-1 R2 Lettered Edge Counterstamped G4. Lettered Edge. Counterstamped "RR" in the center on both sides. Glossy chocolate and steel, slightly lighter on the devices than in the fields. The date and legends are complete and easily readable except for inside the wreath. The "RR" counterstamp was not added by Ray Rouse (a previous owner), but it certainly fits. The date and legends are complete and easily readable except for HALF CENT, which was worn smooth thanks to the bulge created by the counterstamp. Weight 96.6 grains which is a bit light relative to the 104-grain standard. Davy #95.1.8.
Estimated Value $200-UP.
