 1723 Rosa Americana Penny. Stop after REX. No stop after 1723. Br.121. Choice Uncirculated. Bath metal. 139.3 gns. Broader than usual, 27.2 mm., with some extra metal beyond the beaded borders on each side. Very nice looking rich brown color evenly on both sides. Surfaces appear smooth and hard to the naked eye, show some more pronounced pitting under magnification than the previous. Well struck for the denomination.
