Description

Brockage Reverse 1810 Cent
S-285, Fine 12, Ex: Arconti

1810 1C --Brockage Reverse--Fine 12 PCGS. S-285, B-2, R.2. For its Superior auction appearance, McCawley-Grellman explained the mint error as: "The reverse is an incuse impression of the obverse, caused when a previously struck cent failed to eject from the press. The brockage impression is aligned perfectly with the normal obverse." Despite its unusual appearance, the cent circulated for some time, and the dark brown surfaces have acquired the expected number of small marks. EAC 8.
