Description

1723 2PENCE Rosa Americana Twopence, Martin 4.5-E.13, W-1346, R.5, AU58 NGC. 213.3 grains. Die alignment: 180?. An attractive choice for a Colonial-era type set, being just shy of Uncirculated, with a bold, well-centered strike and vibrant brassy surfaces. A very small bit of planchet roughness near the rim at 10 o'clock on the obverse and the corresponding area of the reverse is noted, but this is as struck. A handsome Rosa twopence. Listed on page 45 of the 2018 Guide Book. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
