- Lot Description
- 1795 Washington Liberty and Security Halfpenny. Baker-31A, W-11005. ASYLUM Edge. MS-62 BN (PCGS). Soft underlying luster adds a pleasing glow to the deep golden-tan surfaces. Choice for the grade with no readily seen marks on either side. Some central striking weakness is noted, nearly a given for this issue. A popular issue and one of numerous British Conder tokens that have been "adopted" by U.S. collectors owing to their Washington-related theme. PCGS# 761.
