1807 C-1 R1 EF40.
1807 C-1 R1 EF40. Off Center. Frosty chocolate and steel brown with a splash of darker chocolate toning on the leaves under ME in AMERICA. No defects other than some uneven surface on the unstruck portion of the planchet, as minted. Struck 15-20% off center to K-6.5. Only the top of the 7 shows because the date is mostly off the planchet. A dramatic error with excellent eye appeal. This piece is plated on page 478 in the Breen encyclopedia to illustrate an off center type of mint error. LDS, Manley state 3.0 early. Davy #07.1.4.
Estimated Value $2,000-UP.

Provenance: Ex Willard C. Blaisdell (via Del Bland)-William K. Raymond 9/8/76.
