Lot 304
1811 C-1 R4 G5. Double Struck in Collar with Minor Rotation. A point or two sharper but covered with uniform microscopic porosity. No verdigris, and the only mark is a tiny rim nick at the first A in AMERICA. Slightly glossy dark steel brown and chocolate. Double struck with a very small offset between the impressions. The small shift between impressions resulted in severe distortion on stars 1-7, thin numerals in the date, and doubled berries and leaves in the wreath. LDS, Manley state 5.0, with a strong cud break at stars 1-4. Davy #11.1.13.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
