<Our item number 108453><B>1826 Coronet Head Cent. N-<B>5, R2+</B>. PCGS graded VG-10 Double Struck Off Center.</B> Glossy dark chocolate brown. No roughness or verdigris. The only marks are some faint hairline scratches on the portrait and obverse fields and a pinprick at the upper left point of star 2. Double struck. The first strike was properly centered on the planchet and the second was 50% off center to K-4.5 on the reverse. The second obverse strike, however, was against a new blank planchet that was inserted into the press while this struck cent failed to eject properly. The blank planchet was pressed into the upper right half of the obverse blunting the details in that area while creating an incuse off center brockage on the second planchet. A bold, impressive mint error. The double-struck and off-center features are noted on the PCGS label. EAC grade VG8. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;300-600. <BR><BR>Our item number 108453<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/39jpe gs/108453.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/39jpegs/108453N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
