Lot 15
1794 C-9 R2 Liberty Cap, Head Right G6. Blundered Edge Letters. Sharpness VG10 but the planchet is very slightly bent. The surfaces are smooth, free of any trace of corrosion or verdigris, but there are some obvious contact marks. These include a strong dig under the earlobe, a pair of dull pinpricks at the 17, a collection of dull marks at AT in STATES, and a few more small ones at MERI. Glossy medium brown. The date is strong and the legends are clear. MDS, Manley state 2.0. The die crack from the dentils to the cap is light. The edge lettering is blundered and reads "TWO HUNDREAD DOLLAR" with the A jammed between the E & D in DOLLAR. Weight 112.3 grains. Davy #94.9.10.
Estimated Value $800-UP.
Ex Dan Trollan 4/22/05.
