1791 Liverpool Halfpenny. Baker-17, Musante GW-19, W-10650. Rarity-6. Copper. Lettered Edge. EF-45 (PCGS).An engaging piece with glossy copper brown surfaces and bold to sharp detail for most design elements. The strike is generally well centered, although the borders are tight to most peripheral devices on the obverse, as well as the letters HALFP in HALFPENNY on the reverse. Softly struck at the top of Washingtons head and in the opposing portion of the ships hull, as typically noted in examples of this type. Minor flan flaw at 4 oclock on the reverse border. The Washington Liverpool halfpenny, struck for collectors in England from dies by John Gregory Hancock, nonetheless saw circulation in limited numbers. This is one such piece, although time spent in commerce has hardly affected its overall smooth, satiny surfaces.
