1760 Voce Populi Halfpenny. Nelson-8, Zelinka 3-C, W-13820. Rarity-6+. Long Nose. VG-8 (PCGS).107.0 grains. Light ruddy-brown and quite attractive if well worn, with a bit of minor damage below the date on the reverse. The Nelson-8 is quite scarce and is often mistaken for the more common Nelson-15, with which it shares an obverse; both of Fords Nelson-8s, for example, turned out to be Nelson-15s! The diagnostic difference is the use of a "J" for the numeral 1 for Nelson 15, while the Nelson 8 has a Roman numeral "I" for the date.PCGS# 924115.
