1724 Wood's Hibernia Halfpenny. Martin 4.51-K.4, W-13690. Rarity-2.

1724 Wood's Hibernia Halfpenny. Martin 4.51-K.4, W-13690. Rarity-2. MS-63 BN (PCGS). Frosty and lovely chestnut brown with traces of faded mint color nestled in among many of the peripheral letters. Both sides are a bit softly struck in the centers, bold to sharp elsewhere, and reveal no significant pre- or post-strike blemishes. Just a really pleasing example of the final Wood's Hibernia halfpenny issue coined for circulation, and very much scarcer than its 1723-dated counterpart, especially in Mint State. Provenance: From the Emerald Coast Collection. PCGS Population (all die marriages of the issue): 5; 3 finer in this category (all MS-64 BN). PCGS# 190. NGC ID: F7J9.

Estimate:£0.74
