Lot 500
1831 N-4 R3 Small Letters Reverse VF20. Off Center Reverse Brockage. Ten points sharper with a moderate rim dent at UN, some lighter ones elsewhere on each side, plus a few small nicks on the normal reverse. The incuse brockage impression is not rotated, but it is slightly off center to K-6. (This reverse die was used on 1831 N-4, 1833 N-1, and 1833 N-4. The attribution to the 1831 N-4 marriage is based on the die state, but it's possible this cent was struck during the 1833 N-4 marriage. The 1833 N-1 marriage, however, is not an option based on the die state.) DWH #0754.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
