Great Britain. Half Dollar, 1795. S.3767; ESC-611. George III. Oval counterstamp on a Madrid 1794 4 Reales. Much rarer in grade than the dollar, this example with pleasant and bright blue and gray tone and original luster. Among the finest known of this emergency issue. The counterstamp is very sharp indeed. See our comments under other silver of this period for insights on the emergency nature of these coins. NGC graded MS-62.
