1809 C-6 R1 VG10.
1809 C-6 R1 VG10. Triple Struck in Collar with Rotation/Obverse Brockage Maker. Slightly sharper but lightly cleaned and retoned glossy chocolate brown and steel. No notable defects other than some microscopic roughness covering the planchet. Triple struck with all three strikes centered on the planchet. The reverse shows clear evidence of all three strikes: two with a slight rotation between impressions and a third rotated 30 degrees. Reading the legend outside the wreath is a challenge because there is a lot going on there, but a reasonable interpretation would be UNITEDATES OF OAMAMERICA. The 30 degree rotation is a lot easier to assess by looking at two renditions of HALF CENT. The obverse displays only two strikes rotated by 30 degrees plus clear swelling or puffiness associated with being struck against a new blank planchet creating a brockage. The doubling is clearest on the portrait with IBER across her forehead under LIBE, and Ms Liberty has two necks (just what every lady wants). MDS. Davy #09.6.3.
Estimated Value $200-UP.

Provenance: Ex William K. Raymond 4/23/79.
