1795 Liberty and Security Halfpenny. Musante GW-48, Baker-31B, Breen-1261. Copper. Lettered edge, BIRMINGHAM REDRUTH SWANSEA. EF Details--Environmental Damage (PCGS).
28.5 mm. 125.1 grains. A specimen that was clearly a ground find, with rough surfaces, remnants of crusty deep olive oxidation and clear evidence that some of the same was tooled off. Still, the detail is largely quite sharp and most of the edge device is not difficult to read. One of four different edge variants in the Martin Collection.
From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Purchased in March 1994, source unrecorded.
