1793 1/2P Washington Ship Halfpenny, Lettered Edge XF Details Uncertified. W-10650, Low R.6. The edge reads PAYABLE IN ANGLESEY LONDON OR LIVERPOOL. 173.2 grains. This piece is uncertified due to "residue" that we describe as vermillion patina on the obverse of this microscopically granular piece. The olive and tan reverse, featuring the vessel for which this coin is named, is exceptional. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
Realized $440.63. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions. |
