<B>1804<1/2 C> Plain 4, No Stems--Damaged--ANACS. VF20 Details.</B></I> C-13, B-10, R.1. This coin has an arc-like depression on the reverse, with small incuse leaves visible at the lower left wreath and border, and these are positioned such that they match the positions of the second upper left leaf and the right terminal leaf. We do not believe that this represents damage; rather, it appears that this piece was originally an off-center brockage that was struck a second time in the normal manner. Olive and steel-brown color is intermingled with lighter tan around the devices. This is an attractive piece, and extremely interesting. It is a coin that should be carefully considered by the specialist. EAC 12.
