1/2 Cent    (sold for $1900.0)

1805 C-1 R2- Stemless Wreath VF20. Triple Struck over Reverse Brockage. Ten points sharper but there are fine hairline scratches on the portrait with a few more in the field to the right. Lightly cleaned and retoned glossy bluish steel brown and chocolate. Triple struck. The first strike was a slightly off center reverse brockage. The next two strikes were normal and centered on the planchet with a small offset between those two impressions, about the width of a dentil or slightly larger. Undertype from the incuse reverse shows on the obverse with CENT across the head, the fraction at LIB, and weaker remnants of UNITED behind the portrait. There is no doubling on the obverse. The normal reverse from the first (brockage) strike shows clearly on the reverse and is rotated about 15 degrees CCW relative to the next two strikes. The entire reverse is covered with undertype, and there may be evidence of 4 impressions. The lack of additional impressions on the obverse suggests that side may have been struck against a new blank planchet creating an obverse brockage, but that's only a guess. Regardless, this is a really neat multiple error strike. Davy #05.1.19. Estimated Value $1,000-UP. Ex Fred Weinberg-Ed Fuhrman 4/19/06. Categories:
