<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 843692, member: 21705&quot;]There are wrong planchet errors even today. I have begun to doubt my initial reaction of the marks in the field in front of the face as a smaller denomination strike though. I&#039;m beginning to suspect what I thought was a nose is actually the top left of a crown oriented in a down facing direction.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m going crosseyed making distinctions between pre and post mint damage. The closer I look, the more I see AND imagine. That&#039;s why all I offer is an opinion from someone who is definitely NOT an expert, but is trying to learn. In this regard, your help is greatly appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, the intentional cut down large cent for use as a Half cent was commissioned by Dan Holmes to recreate the piece used to verify the old 1796 NC-6 which was delisted by Sheldon in Penny Whimsy through use of the undertype of the Half Cent and is currently the called the 1796 NC-7. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure you probably know this, but it is what has gotten me looking for such undertype and seeing the double hubbing everywhere I look.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
