2024 EAC Sale

INDIANAPOLIS EAC 2024  CLIPPED PLANCHET

LOT 110 1795 C-5a R3 No Pole VG10. Sharpness near VF20 but burnished and partly retoned glossy golden tan blending to light olive and reddish brown in protected areas. The planchet is rough near the dentils under and left of the date and in the opposing area over TATES. Looks like this was caused by the planchet being thin in that area. Another void shows in the field left of the bottom of the cap, and a curved planchet clip affects the dentils left of the cap. The date and legends are complete and strong. MDS. The bisecting die crack on the reverse is obvious.

LOT 114 1797 C-3b R4 Lettered Edge Fair-2+. Glossy medium chocolate brown and steel. The fields and protected areas show microscopic granularity and there are a couple minor marks at the back of the head and a shallow dent on the forehead, but basically this is just a very well worn half cent. The date is complete and easily readable and half the legends are readable. EDS without any trace of a crack from the chin. Only portions of the edge lettering remain visible, and those are only partial because they hang off the planchet. Decent for the grade, close to AG3.

LOT 112 1797 C-1 R2 Repunched 1 AG3+. Slightly glossy olive brown with lighter steel brown on the devices. Smooth and void of marks, just worn. Nice for the grade. EDS before any swelling on the reverse. The date and 1 above 1 feature are clear.
