Lot 8
(1672-75) St Patrick Halfpenny Vlack 4-E Breen-204. PCGS graded VG-10. Variety with small letters on both sides. Choice glossy medium brown and light chocolate with darker olive brown toning in the protected areas. The surfaces are smooth and the two-tone appearance accents the devices and adds to the eye appeal. No verdigris and the only marks are a small rim nick right of the crown and a short, light scratch on the harp under the king's hand. Very nice for the grade, perhaps undergraded for this scarce colonial type that is associated with New Jersey. Listed on page 41 in the "Redbook."
Estimated Value $600-UP.
