 1724 Wood's Hibernia Halfpenny. N.11. Stop after Date. Gem Uncirculated. 118.6 gns. A very nice light olive brown example. As well struck in the centers as the issue usually comes, this piece actually shows more detail on Hibernia's figure at her waist than usually seen. Surfaces smooth, hard and essentially granularity free. Well centered on each side. A lovely example and another coin well suited for a high grade type collection.
Ex E.H.A. sale (February 2, 1914, lot 27); F.C.C. Boyd Estate. Said ex Philip Nelson by Boyd.
