1834 C-1 R1 VF35. Clipped Planchet. Sharpness EF40 or slightly better but there are a few very faint hairline scratches on the obverse, all blending perfectly into the attractive glossy medium brown toning. A small spot of dark olive toning in the field right of star 2 is the best identifying mark. MDS, Manley state 2.0, with clear die clashmarks on both sides. A curved planchet clip affects the dentils over star 8 and the opposing dentils at ICA. The dentils across the planchet from the clip are weakly impressed, the so-called Blakesly effect that usually accompanies a planchet clip. Davy #34.1.13. Estimated Value $100-UP. Ex Jonathan Kern 3/1/1992. Categories: Selections from the Davy Collection of US Half Cents Part 2
