Lot 436
1817 N-3 R2 G4. Reverse Brockage. Sharpness VG8 or so, even better on the brockage side, but the normal side is affected by a half dozen thin scratches inside the wreath. In addition, there is a bend in the planchet affecting NE in ONE to the first A in AMERICA. Glossy chocolate brown. A reverse brockage strike. The incuse impression is strong and aligned perfectly with the normal side. In your cataloger's opinion, the cents of 1817 are represented by more brockage strikes than any other year 1793-1857.
Estimated Value $600-UP.
