harveypb Valued Member United States 341 Posts	Posted 04/26/2013 10:46 pm Here's pics of my 1827 O.148 Bust Half with multiple errors. Struck slightly offcenter, double struck (see circled areas on obv) and reverse brokage ( see star circled on rev) Most 1827 O.148 pieces have multiple errors. It is thought that the Minter took his spoiled planchets, rejects, and decided to make good coins out of them at this time... Report this Post to the Staff

Jabbss651 Valued Member 72 Posts	Posted 02/26/2014 7:30 pm Ive seen RAW examples in Fine condition go for around 13g's...that is one heck of a piece!! I'm curious tho...why havent you had it slabbed? Gorgeous piece!! Report this Post to the Staff
harveypb Valued Member United States 341 Posts	Posted 02/28/2014 6:46 pm I'm thinking of having it slabbed. It is original and will grade & slab. I don't know if they would write on the slab that its double struck and has reverse brokage. Its really not offcenter enough to be labeled as such.. I also have an 1827 O.137 that's an original Fine that would also grade and slab. I may submit them both in person at the next summer FUN show.... Report this Post to the Staff
