$3,250.00

Vlack 1-B. Reeded edge. 149.7 gns. Fine, or better. Choice, chocolate brown surfaces are very smooth and absent any specific flaws. Centers are a bit weakly defined, as expected, but all design elements are clearly delineated and on flan. Metallic, light olive-gold colored brass splasher covers about 70% of the crown, flowing into the field below. Here is very eye appealing, well chosen... more |

Nothing below king. Reeded edge. 101.3 gns. Uncirculated. The most amazing St. Patrick farthing we have seen. Surfaces are a glossy, lustrous mahogany brown and are of a quality not encountered on coins of this series, which are usually well worn, porous, and generally wretched looking! The strike is uncommonly bold, and the centering is perfect, with denticles visible around 100%... more |

Martlet (small bird) below king. 84.5 gns. Extremely Fine. Boldly struck and well-detailed on a wide planchet, this specimen exhibits even granularity on both sides with some larger pits noted on obverse. The clarity of detail, however, is quite exquisite, with the all important martlet hovering clearly below King David's knees. Brass splasher is well centered and oblong in shape and has... more |

Sea beasts below king. Reeded Edge. 98.7 gns. About Extremely Fine. Glossy, deep chestnut brown fields surround gently worn devices that are a slightly lighter hue of brown. Fields exhibit minimal grain under magnification, which seems to be inherent in the planchet. Die crack starting around 'S' of PLEBS. The upside down '1' in QVIESCAT and the 'B' made from corrected 'R' noted by... more |

Sea beasts and Large 8 below king. Reeded edge. 89.3 gns. Choice Very Fine. Light brown devices, legends, and rims stand out boldly against deep coffee brown fields on both sides. Brass splasher is present but has become one with the coin's overall patina. Old scratches from central to upper obverse. The central weakness of both sides and the weakness at upper left reverse may be attributed... more |

Nothing below King. Reeded edge, but faint. 90.6 gns. Very Fine. Glossy, medium brown surfaces exhibit darker patination in and around the peripheries of both sides. The strike is above average for the issue, and the centering is quite good. A couple inconsequential rim bruises are noted, as are some long since toned over pinscratches in right obverse field. Brass splasher is tightly... more |

Nothing below king (?). Reeded edge. 80.6 gns. Very Fine. Obverse is a trifle off-center toward the bottom, making the area below King David quite tight; as such it is not possible to say for sure what might have been below, although John Griffee's die variety studies may soon shed light on the attribution for us. Surfaces are very smooth for a St. Patrick farthing, with only a minimal... more |

$550.00
|
Nothing below king (?). Reeded edge. 88.7 gns. Technically Very Fine or better. Surfaces are a charming, glossy chocolate brown in hue, while the brass splasher is golden brown and centered toward the bottom of the crown. Upper third of both obverse and reverse exhibit advanced granularity, greatly weakening the remaining detail in those areas. There is a very slight bend to the planchet. |

Nothing below king. Reeded edge is weak. 84.9 gns. Choice Very Good. Light chocolate brown and remarkably smooth. When viewed on its edge, this coin is definitely thinner at the upper right obverse and upper left reverse; it is no surprise then that these areas are the roughest and most weakly defined, as there wasn't sufficient metal in those areas to fill the dies and obliterate... more |

Sea beasts below king, stars in legends. No signs of edge reeding. 79.4 gns. Very Good to Fine. Surfaces are dark brown, verging on ebony, with the legends and devices highlighted in lighter brown. Centers of both sides are weakly struck, with roughness in those and surrounding areas. Well centered and rather attractive in spite of the flaws. Splasher is relatively well placed and is a bright... more |
