Losbeschreibung

Undated (ca. 1652-1674) St. Patrick Farthing. Martin 1c.13-Da.1, W-11500. Rarity-6+. Copper. Nothing Below King. EF-40 (PCGS). 78.4 grains. Glossy light brown with superlative visual appeal. Smooth and attractive, well centered, just a gorgeous piece. Straight clip on obverse below 3 o'clock, large oval splash covers all of the crown. PLEBS is a trifle soft due to die swelling in the region. A single tiny natural pit is present right of Saint Patrick, a couple similar pits unobtrusively hidden at the top of the harp. A highly desirable coin that will satisfy the fussiest of collectors. Provenance: From the Bill Gleckler Collection. Earlier ex sale of the Ted L. Craige Collection, November 2012 Baltimore Auction, lot 6124. PCGS# 42. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
