1794 S-31 R1 VG10. Blundered Edge Letters. Sharpness VF35 or
slightly better but the planchet is dark and covered with light
roughness, strongest on the obverse. No verdigris, and the only
marks are a faint, old scrape on the cheek, a thin nick up from the
bottom of the pole, and a pair of dull rim nicks over the B in
LIBERTY. Frosty dark steel and olive. The date and legends are bold
except for strike weakness at ITE in UNITED. The edge lettering is
blundered with "HUNDRED FOR" reading "HUNDREDOR." This was caused by
operator error when the mint worker failed to reset the Castaing
edge-lettering machine to the proper starting position before
applying the edge lettering to the planchet. Lawrie Rhoads collection. |
