 Undated St. Patrick's Farthing. Copper. Nothing under king. Extremely Fine. 97.8 gns. FLOREAT :REX: obverse. QVIESCAT PLEBS: reverse. Medium brown in color. Remarkable brass splash, here covering the crown, letters to its left and right and engaging the top of King David's head. Reverse rim flawed above EB, smaller flaw on David's neck, no other marks or stray signs of mishandling that require specific mention. Somewhat softly struck in the center of St. Patrick's figure.
Ex New Netherlands Coin Company.
