Lot 159
1804 C-10 R1 G6. Double Struck Far Off Center. Glossy light chocolate and medium brown with a few small splashes of dark reddish chocolate toning on the reverse. Smooth surfaces void of notable contact marks. Double struck. One impression is properly centered and the other is 95% off center leaving the tops of TY near the rim behind the portrait. The reverse displays an arc in the opposing area at D-S, and it appears this was pressed in by a new blank planchet rather than the reverse die during the off center strike. Apparently this one failed to eject completely before the dies came together to strike a new planchet. LDS, Manley 3.0. Davy #04.10.10.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
