Description du lot

Scarce St. Patrick Halfpenny Undated (ca. 1652-1674) St. Patrick Halfpenny. Martin 1-A, W-11540. Rarity-5. Large Letters. VF-30 (PCGS). 138.6 grains. A lovely mid-grade example of the type with exceptionally nice surfaces and eye appeal. Glossy chocolate-brown with no marks or flaws. Well struck with just modest, even wear. All of the design elements display nicely and the legends are bold. The brass splasher was centered on the crown but has since toned to medium brown, blending in with the overall patina. A premium piece to represent the halfpenny or "large size" St. Patrick issue. Provenance: From the Bill Gleckler Collection. PCGS# 46. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
