1809 C-6 R1 Fair-2. Tab Double Strike. A couple points sharper, especially on the reverse, but the surfaces are granular and the obverse is covered with fine pinscratches. The scratches are old and all are blended nicely into the dark steel and olive toning. No verdigris. The date is complete and easily readable although not strong and most of the legends are weak but readable. This piece was struck at least two times, but the low grade may be hiding evidence of another strike. The obverse shows one strike slightly off center to K-10 plus another impression from an overlapping blank planchet that created a tab at K-10. The reverse shows only a single strike that is centered on the planchet. It appears that the tab impression came first, or at least prior to the centered strike on the reverse, since there is an impressed arc left by the reverse die at the inner edge of the tab. Too bad these errors tend to come in low grades because that makes it especially difficult to figure out exactly what the sequence of errors may have been. Nonetheless, the tab error on this piece is obvious to the unaided eye. Davy #09.6.18. Estimated Value $100-UP. Ex Don Valenziano 11/11/1988.
