Owner Comments:
Misplaced 76 Digits, two sets of extra 76 digits in the gown area between right shield and pendant. - A spectacular occurrence of a two digit blundered date is found on this 1876-CC obverse. The extra bases of the 76 digits are centered on either side of the right scroll end. The two misplaced bases of the 6 digit are easily seen to the right of the scroll end. The bases of the 7 digit can be found in the lower fold of the scroll, directly below LIBERT(Y). Obverse 9 is also paired with a late die state Reverse H. A die crack connects the tops of the mintmark to the left and right ribbon ends. This variety was first published by Louis Stubler in Gobrecht Journal issue number 47.
