Undated (Circa 1663-1672) St. Patrick Farthing. Breen-211, W-11500. Copper. Sea Beasts Below King. VF-20 Porous.，90.1 grains. This more affordable early colonial-era farthing offers considerable boldness of detail throughout the design. Struck slightly off center on an ovoid planchet, denticulation is present only along the lower borders. Medium brown surfaces are overall rough in texture with a ragged border planchet flaw at 2 oclock relative to the obverse. The St. Patrick coinage of Ireland has long been collected as an adjunct to the later New Jersey copper series of 1786 to 1788. Examples of the halfpence were brought to that colony by Mark Newby, a Dublin shopkeeper who immigrated to West Jersey (todays New Jersey) in 1681.，PCGS# 42.，，Acquired from Empire Coin Company, August 1964. Paper envelope with provenance and collector notes included.
