INDIANAPOLIS EAC 2024

LOT 401 1811/10 S-286 R3 Overdate 11 over 10 G6. Steel brown and olive. The highpoints are smooth but the rest of this cent is covered with very fine roughness. Traces of fine verdigris show in protected areas. A thin diagonal nick on the jawline is the best identifying mark. The overdate is clear.

LOT 404 1811 S-287 R2 F12. Glossy medium brown and light chocolate. Smooth with a few marks on the obverse rim including a rim nick left of star 2, a rim bruise over star 8, and another right of star 12. The reverse is nice. Unevenly struck with weakness on the left side of the obverse, probably due to the obverse die being misaligned to that side. MDS.
