1826 C-1 R1 VF35.
1826 C-1 R1 VF35. Double Struck with Rotation/Off Center Obverse Brockage Maker. Frosty olive brown and chocolate. Sharply struck and very attractive for the grade. No notable defects. Double struck. Both strikes were centered on the planchet but rotated 30 degrees between the impressions. The reverse was struck by the die on the second strike while the obverse was against a new blank planchet positioned 45% off center creating an off center brockage impression. The doubling on the reverse is bold, especially inside the wreath where the amount of die rotation is obvious. A bold example of this type of error offering excellent eye appeal. LDS, Manley state 5.0. Davy #26.1.5.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
