1722 Woods Hibernia Halfpenny. Martin 4.1-Bb.2, W-12690. Rarity-3. First Type, Harp at Left. Double Struck. EF-40 (PCGS). 120.4 grains. A most eye-arresting error in a series essentially devoid of major errors like this. Struck once on-center, then a second time slightly off-center to 2 oclock, with separation between strikes amounting to a full letters height in places. Surfaces are mostly smooth and glossy, with just a few excusable marks in the fields from casual circulation. Major errors among the 1722 Harp Left Hibernia halfpennies are especially rare and desirable. No PCGS# 921401. NGC ID: F7HW. <strong>To view supplemental information and all items from the Sydney F.
