Lot 140
1795 C-6a R2 No Pole, Thin Planchet AG3+. Off Center. Several points sharper where properly struck up and there are no significant defects. The planchet is reasonably smooth. There is no verdigris and the only notable mark is a pinprick over the R in AMERICA. Rather glossy dark steel brown and olive. Struck 15-20% off center to K-10.5, and this certainly contributed to the uneven strike. The date is weak but readable and the legends that made it onto the planchet are mostly clear. Weight 78.7 grains. Davy #95.6a.28.
Estimated Value $200-UP.
Ex Don Valenziano 7/18/90.
