1804 C-13 R1 Plain 4 without Stems G5
1804 C-13 R1 Plain 4 without Stems G5. Double Struck with Minor Rotation, Reverse Brockage Maker. Very slightly sharper but there is a significant nick-like pinch on the rim under the 0 in the date and at the opposing rim over E in STATES. The surfaces are not perfectly smooth and there are some old, light contact marks covering the field behind the portrait. But it doesn't look as bad as these words might imply. The date and legends are complete and clear and the devices remain glossy chocolate brown while the fields are a less glossy olive and dark chocolate. Double struck with a small, perhaps .5mm, CW rotation between the strikes. The doubling is clear along the back of the head and upper edge of the bust, and Ms Liberty has two mouths. The reverse shows no doubling. Instead it was pressed against a new blank planchet creating a reverse brockage during the second strike. Very similar to the preceding lot, although the extra blank planchet was centered against this piece. MDS, Manley state 2.0, showing many clear dentils on the reverse. Davy #04.13.25.
Estimated Value $50-UP.

Provenance: Ex Don Valenziano 7/5/1989.
