 DOUBLE STRUCK 1835 C-2

LOT 162 1835 C-2 R1 AU50. Lustrous light olive and reddish brown with lighter steel brown toning in protected areas on the reverse. Satiny mint frost covers the protected areas and there are no notable marks. Double struck. One strike was normal and centered on the planchet while the other strike was 35% off center. Undertype from the off center reverse is clearest on the rim at the bottom of the reverse. AME shows from the T in CENT down into the leaves below, and parts of IC show on the rim under the stem end. The only evidence of undertype on the obverse is a faint arc across the bust and a depression on the rim above the back of the head. It appears that the off center strike came first and it may have been a uniface strike (reverse only). A great mint error. LDS, Manley state 3.0.
