Description

1771 Machin's Mills Halfpenny. Vlack 2-71A, W-7670. Rarity-4. GEORGIVS III, Group I--Triple Struck--Fine-12 (PCGS).
119.6 grains. A charming and fairly dramatic multiply struck piece with clear evidence of three distinct strikes, each off center to some degree as well as rotated from each other. The first strike was perhaps closest to a regular strike appearing to be off center by just about 5%. The second strike is 10% to 15% off while the third and final dominant strike is a good 30% off center. Light olive-brown surfaces are mildly porous throughout but free of any serious marks.
PCGS# 826934.
From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier said to be ex Abe Kosoff; Christopher B. Young, August 2010.

Estimate: $1100
