Lot 217
1806 C-2 R4 Small 6 with Stems VG10. Double Struck Off Center. At least 5 points sharper but there are small patches of raised verdigris on both sides, including one under the bust tip, another at ED in UNITED, and a broken swipe of similar crud from ST in STATES across to AM in AMERICA. The remainder of the planchet is smooth. Glossy chocolate and steel brown mixed with darker olive and steel toning. Double struck. There is a clear arc of dentils 50% off center on the reverse from the first S in STATES to the N in CENT, and these dentils appear to be from an incuse brockage impression. In addition, the entire reverse displays fine doubling, clearest on the tops of HALF CENT. There is no evidence of doubling on the obverse. MDS, Manley state 2.0. Davy #06.2.7.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
