Description Description: 1795 C-6a R2 Plain Edge without Pole on Thin Planchet F12. Double or Triple Struck over Talbot Allum & Lee Cent. Glossy medium brown and light chocolate with a splash of reddish chocolate toning at CA in AMERICA and traces of darker olive brown toning on both sides. Smooth surfaces showing only a few light contact marks, including a fine hairline scratch at the second S in STATES. Double struck (possibly triple struck as the lower edge of the cap shows clear triple outlines) over a cut-down TAL Cent. The TAL undertype is visible in the dentils right of the Y in LIBERTY and above RICA. Bold doubling shows all around Ms Liberty, HALF CENT, and the wreath with more subtle doubling elsewhere on both sides. Both strikes were fairly well centered on the planchet but they were rotated slightly between impressions. Weight 84.6 grains. Davy #95.6a.25. Estimated Value $400-UP.
