Lot 39
1805 C-1 R2- Small 5 without Stems ANACS graded F15. Glossy tan and light steel brown blending to darker olive in protected areas. The only notable mark is a small punch near the edge well above the bust tip. This cent was struck twice with both strikes centered on the planchet. The second strike is rotated 30 degrees clockwise relative to the first impression. Bold evidence of the first strike shows on the portrait. The reverse was struck against a new blank planchet during the second strike creating an incuse brockage impression on that planchet. Minor swelling that is associated with being a "brockage maker" is evident on the reverse. A bold example of a neat mint error. Our grade is VG10. The Double Struck feature is noted on the ANACS label. Estimated Value $500 - UP
