1760 Voce Populi Halfpenny. Nelson-15, Zelinka 3-A, W-13820. Rarity-4. Long Nose. EF-45 (PCGS).96.7 grains. Dark mahogany brown, this example is very decently centered on a flan that was clearly too small for the dies, with denticulation visible around only 50% of the obverse circumference, and none visible on the reverse. The central strike is a bit soft, leaving a dip in the central obverse, and some of the original planchet surface shows through at reverse center where there was not enough metal flow to obliterate it. This is not unexpected given the combination of high relief designs and a very lightweight, thin flan in this case. Nelson-15 and Nelson-8 are often confused, given that they share an obverse and have very similar reverses. Though, in what must have been a severe senior moment for the cataloger, this one was attributed as Nelson 5, Z.2-A in our 1995 James A. Stack sale; Nelson-5 potentially does not exist, and if it does, it would be Zelinka 4-A, not 2-A.PCGS# 924121. NGC ID: 2AUC.<strong>To view supplemental information and all items from the Sydney F.
