1722 Wood's Hibernia Farthing. D:G:REX. N.2. ''Pattern.'' Uncirculated, or slightly finer. 71.3 gns. Very sharply struck and on fields which are toned in a nice, light golden brown shade. Most of George's hair curls can be seen without the aid of magnification and Liberty's features and figure are full. A short staple scratch in the right reverse field is noted. Called ''Proof'' by Boyd.
Ex Henry Chapman in 1910 as a ''Proof;'' F.C.C. Boyd Estate.
