1843
Mintage: 75,462 Proof: ?
There are three varieties for this date. The first is
Breen-6859 (Normal Date), Breen-6860 (All four digits of
the date are clearly doubled) and Breen-6861 (the "4"
is triple punched, other digits are doubled.) It is
possible that Breen-6860 is a later die stage of
Breen-6861. The doubled and tripled die varieties show
strong doubling and are worth a small premium over
the normal date variety, although they are not as
rare as Breen suggests.
Breen states that six proofs are traced. They are of the
Normal Date variety.
