Lot 263
1804 C-9 R2 VG7. Triple Struck with Small Offset. Glossy light chocolate and medium brown. Smooth and attractive, very nice for the grade. This piece was struck three times. Two of the impressions were centered with a very small offset between the impressions. Fine but clear doubling shows along the upper edge of the head with less obvious doubling elsewhere on that side. The fine doubling on the reverse is more obvious, clearest on the wreath and HALF CENT. In addition, there is an arc of impressed dentils through the leaves under T in CENT. These dentils are incuse, which suggests an off center brockage impression. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0. The die crack through the top of RTY is clear. Davy #04.9.17.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
Ex Richard Gross 4/7/2000.
