Free State copper Proof Prova Penny 1927 PR64 Red and Brown NGC, Milan mint, cf. KM-Pr3 (there is silver-plated bronze). By P. Morbiducci. Plain edge. A captivating type and a denomination we've yet seen in our auctions. Struck for inclusion in a set designed by Morbiducci for the Irish Free State and the redesign of their coinage. While ultimately not adopted for circulation, these pieces remain an important relic from Ireland's storied past, historically and numismatically speaking. Currently one of three submitted to NGC, and rare as such. HID09801242017 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
