Lot 52		1803 C-2 R4 PCGS graded VF30. PCGS graded VF-30. Glossy dark chocolate brown delicately mottled with small splashes of slightly lighter steel brown toning on the obverse. The surfaces are perfectly smooth except for traces of microscopic roughness in the field before the neck. A thin nick or pre-striking planchet chip in the center of the bust and a very thin nick on the nose are the only marks. A shallow depression, possibly caused by debris or grease on the die, covers much of the field behind the portrait. However, the planchet weight is only 77.4 grains, which is significantly lighter than the standard of 84.0 grains, so it is possible that the planchet was thin in that area before striking. But since the reverse is fully struck in the opposing area, the debris theory seems the more reasonable one. Regardless, this is a beautiful example of a tough die variety. EDS, Manley state 2.0 early, with a fine die crack through the top of ATES but before the die cracks at OF and MERIC. Our grade is VF25. Called CC#5 in the Mike Spurlock census. Noyes photo #73616.

Lot 61		1804 C-3 (C-5 early, Without Spike From Chin) R7- PCGS Fine Details, Damage or Tooling. Sharpness at least VG8 by our standards but there are numerous scratches on both sides. Most are very fine hairline scratches of minor importance, but there are some stronger ones on the obverse, particularly along the dentils and rim under the date. Glossy dark steel brown. LDS, Manley state 2.0. The smooth (unspiked) chin feature is clear. The reverse is plated on page 232 of the Breen encyclopedia to illustrate the variety (which in reality is an early die state of the C-5 variety, or, said another way, C-5 is a late state of the C-3 variety). The exact cause of the "Spike" is uncertain. Obviously something (perhaps a small screw) came between the obverse die and a planchet during a strike early in this marriage (die pairing) causing significant damage to the obverse die. Fortunately the die survived and went on to perform adequately in three more marriages before retirement (C-6, 7, and 8). Our grade is VG8+ sharpness net G6. One of only 2 examples known of the C-3/5 variety without the "Spiked Chin" when the Breen book was written, but about a dozen are known today. Most are in low grade with only a single piece grading better than F12.

No verdigris, but there are myriad old, fine scratches on the obverse plus a few more on the reverse, all blended nicely into the natural toning. Slightly glossy chocolate and olive brown with lighter steel brown toning on the devices. LDS, Manley state 2.0. The lack of a "Spike" from the chin is clear. Our grade is VG8 sharpness net G5.

Lot 65		1804 C-5 R4 Spiked Chin PCGS graded VF25. PCGS graded VF-25 Brown. Glossy bluish steel and chocolate brown. Smooth and attractive. The only marks are a shallow planchet flake under the I in UNITED, as struck, and a light scratch below OF. This piece was struck two times. The first impression was at least 40% off center and the second strike was centered on the planchet. Strong evidence of the first strike is visible on the upper half of the obverse and lower half of the reverse. In addition to the obvious undertype, there is a very clear "8" from the date of the first strike located on the hair ribbon. M-LDS, Manley state 4.0, with die cracks on the reverse.

Lot 76		1804 C-13 R1 Plain 4 without Stems VF30. Double Struck Reverse Brockage Maker. Ten points sharper but very lightly cleaned and retoned frosty light olive and reddish chocolate brown. There are some faint hairlines remaining from the cleaning but no roughness or other notable marks. Double struck. Both strikes were centered on the planchet and the second was rotated 10 degrees CCW relative to the first. The doubling is obvious on the obverse, especially on the date and LIBERTY, which now reads LIBBEERRTTYY. There is no doubling on the reverse. Instead, it was struck into a new blank planchet during the second strike thereby creating a reverse brockage on the new planchet. The usual swelling associated with being used to create a brockage is obvious on the reverse. A sharp, attractive mint error in spite of the minor defects.
