1828 C-3 R1 VG10
1828 C-3 R1 VG10. Double Struck. Five points sharper but there several rim nicks at D-STA and a pair of dull pinpricks on the throat. Glossy very dark olive brown and steel. LDS, Manley state 4.0. Double struck. One strike was normal and centered on the planchet but there is a clear arc of impressed dentils from the field above the back of the head to the rim at star 11. A small depression on the rim above the first A in AMERICA and a weaker one on the rim over the left edge of the second A are directly opposite the ends of the arc of dentils on the obverse. This suggests the reverse was struck by a die or a planchet directly opposite the arc of dentils, but there is no evidence of undertype in that area. Obviously the first strike was the off center impression and the second was the centered strike. Davy #28.3.11.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
