Full resolution: (1205 X 623 pixels, file size: ~159K)

1795 C-6a R2 Plain Edge without Pole on Thin Planchet VF30. Oval-Shaped Planchet. Slightly sharper with a dull rim nick off the chin and a faint scuff of very fine scratches arcing through the top of the cap. Otherwise this cent is smooth and quite attractive offering outstanding eye appeal. Choice glossy chocolate and steel brown. The planchet is oval or egg-shaped (perhaps a rugby football?), but there is no trace of undertype from a cut-down planchet on either side (the out-of-round planchet shape usually indicates a larger planchet was cut down to the smaller half cent size). Plated on page 470 in the Breen book to illustrate what he calls an "Oval Clip." We could argue about the terminology, but the "coolness" of this piece is not in question. EDS, Manley state 1.0. Weight 78.4 grains. Davy #95.6a.9. Estimated Value $2,000-UP. Ex Kagin's 1977 ANA Sale, 8/23/77:4462. Categories:
