Description

Dramatic Off-Center and Brockage
1920 Cent, VG10

1920 Lincoln Cent--40% Off-Center and Brockage Reverse--VG10 PCGS. Instead of being ejected after its strike, a 1920 cent (not the present piece) clung to the reverse die. It likely also blocked the collar die. A new planchet (the present piece) was then fed off-center (at 2 o'clock) between the dies, and was struck by the obverse die and the obverse of the previously struck cent. The reverse of this lot would be a perfect brockage, except it is widely off center, and was presumably carried as a pocket piece by its fortunate finder. An attractive medium brown off center brockage with a few minor specks of verdigris.
