Description

49 - 231/231 a R8 NGC MS66 BN Trace Red with very nice luster and color. Our Country with shield within wreath. Full brockage mint error. A brockage is created when an already struck token adheres to one of the dies and in effect becomes a die itself. The next planchet struck will receive an incused image from the struck token. The first few tokens struck in that manner will receive a crisp sharp strike as in this example. When the token creating the brockage remains stuck for a number of strikes its image will become weaker and more spread out with each strike. We sold a PCGS AU55 example on eBay in October 2020 that brought $760. (1500-2000)
