Lot 105
1800 C-1 R2 F12. Double Struck with Off Center Reverse Brockage. Sharpness near VF20 but lightly burnished and nicely retoned glossy olive and dark chocolate brown. No marks, roughness, or verdigris, and the reason for the light burnishing is unknown. Great eye appeal. Double struck. One strike is normal and properly centered while the other is a 40% off-center reverse brockage. Clear incuse impressions of the H in HALF, NT in CENT, and elements of the wreath are visible on the left side of the obverse. On the opposing area of the reverse is a normal (positive or raised) impression of the same design elements, and these are even clearer than the incuse ones found on the obverse. Another fantastic mint error. Weight 85.7 grains. Davy #00.1.23.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
