1809 C-2 R3 G6.
1809 C-2 R3 G6. Tab Double Strike. Slightly sharper but there are a dozen small contact marks on both sides, the most significant of these being an attempted puncture right of the F in OF. No roughness or verdigris. Glossy chocolate and olive brown with slightly lighter chocolate brown toning covering the devices. Double struck. One strike was centered and the other was 95% off center to K-4 creating a tab at stars 11-13. The tab at stars 11-13 shows distorted dentils but the reverse part of the tab displays no evidence of having struck either a die or another planchet. In addition, the obverse die is misaligned to K-4 while the reverse is properly centered on the planchet. EDS, Manley state 1.0. Davy #09.2.8.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
