1808/7 C-2 Overdate 8 over 7 G6. Glossy chocolate and steel brown. Smooth and choice for the grade. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0 late, with a slightly sunken retained cud break over TY. The die crack through the tops of BERTY is clear and it becomes stronger as it progresses toward the Y. An attractive lower grade example of this rare intermediate die state. Mentioned by Manley in his list of state 2.0 examples (RSC:248). The date and legends are clear and the overdate is obvious. Davy #08.2.12.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
