1/2 Cent (Venduta per $3000.0)

Versione ad alta risoluzione: (1205 X 600pixel, dimensione del file: ~133K)

1797 C-3a R3 Low Head with Plain Edge AG3+. Struck over Off Center Reverse Brockage Large Cent. The obverse is at least G4 with a clear date while the reverse is only AG3. Smooth and attractive, just worn. The only marks of any significance are two light hairline scratches in the field under the cap. Glossy light chocolate brown. Struck on an off-center large cent showing strong evidence of the cent on both sides. "S OF" from the cent reverse is clearly visible before the head, and an incuse brockage impression of "TE" from the cent reverse shows in the reverse indent. This "TE" could be from UNITED or STATES, but it appears to be from UNITED based on what appears to be the faint top of a D following the E. Obviously the spoiled cent was an off-center brockage strike. Another wonderful example of the various anomalies found on our early half cents and the frugality of our Federal Mint during its infancy. Weight 70.4 grains. Davy #97.3a.4. Estimated Value $200-UP. Ex Bill Weber (part of a trade) 11/11/80. Categories:
