King David's features are distinct on the obverse of this conservatively graded halfpenny, which boasts full legends and clear harp strings. The reverse is choice and well-centered with strong detail and exceptional coloration. A key reverse diagnostic is the absence of the shamrock's stem extending below Patrick's hand.
