1723 Wood's Hibernia Halfpenny. Martin 4.57-Gc.13, W-13120. Rarity-3. MS-64 RB (PCGS).

Premium Choice Uncirculated quality that will appeal to both advanced type collectors and series specialists. Abundant mint orange color remains on both sides and mingles nicely with light iridescent toning in gray-brown. The strike is well centered and sharp apart from minor softness in the centers, a not unusual feature for the type. The surfaces are hard, tight and frosty with strong eye appeal.

PCGS# 920818. NGC ID: F7J4.
