- 1793/2 Ship Halfpenny. Musante GW-20, Baker-18, W-10855. Copper. Lettered Edge. AU-53 BN (NGC). Well centered in strike with bold to sharp peripheral detail, softness through the centers is the result of die swell, fairly typical of the type. The surfaces are smooth and tight in hand with an even endowment of antique copper-brown patina. The portrait of Washington used on this type is attributed to John Gregory Hancock, one of England's most accomplished die-sinkers and engravers of his day. PCGS# 734. NGC ID: 2B7J.
