Losbeschreibung

1795 Washington North Wales Halfpenny. Baker-35, W-11190. Two Stars at Each Side of Harp. Copper. Plain Edge. Good-6 (PCGS). This is a difficult variety to find in any grade. PCGS has seen a mere ten examples with the Two Stars at each side of the harp. Smooth wear but Washington is easily recognizable and the harp is outlined. Two ancient digs intersect on the upper right reverse which hallmark this piece. The copper is generally smooth but for a few traces of localized roughness. Ever-present die crack through Washington's head limited production of this collectible rarity. PCGS# 776.
