1828 C-3 R1 VF25.
1828 C-3 R1 VF25. Flipover Double Strike over Off Center Obverse Brockage. A multiple mint error with a lot going on. Glossy light brown and olive with slightly darker toning on some of the devices. The only notable mark is a fine horizontal scratch across the head at BER. The initial brockage strike was 30% off center to K-2. Evidence of this first impression shows on the left side of the reverse where the face and bust are clear and the date shows at TAT in STATES. The second strike was an obverse brockage 40% off center on the lower left portion of the obverse. This one displays lots of incuse hair details. The third strike was normal and properly centered on both sides but the planchet was flipped over, hence the off center obverse undertype on the reverse. Obviously this one came from a train wreck with poorly paid mint workers at the controls. Several types of mint error are represented on this single planchet. M-LDS, Manley state 3.0. Davy #28.3.10.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
