Lot Description

1760 Hibernia-Voce Populi Halfpenny. Nelson-12, Zelinka 15-N, W-13950. URS-11. P in Front of Face. VF-30 (PCGS). CAC. Glossy, otherwise copper brown surfaces exhibit somewhat lighter medium brown patina in the open fields and over the devices. Well centered in strike and suitably bold for having seen this extensive circulation, smooth-looking surfaces are also a highly desirable attribute in an example of this Colonial era type. Nice piece.
