Undated (Circa 1663-1672) St. Patrick Farthing. Breen-212, W-11500. Copper. Sea Beasts Below King, Masonic Punctuation. Fine-12 Scratches.，86.0 grains. There is considerable gloss to both sides of this antique copper and medium brown St. Patricks farthing. Central detail is suitably bold, although less-than-perfect centering, uneven wear, and roughness in the planchet have obscured the peripheral detail along the left obverse, upper obverse, and upper right reverse borders. Traces of a wildly misplaced brass plug at the lower obverse border are noted. Several scratches are present in and around the center on the same side, tiny nicks on the reverse before St. Patricks head and over the church. The Masonic punctuation in the form of three dots is faint, yet discernible on the obverse after the word REX. All in all, a relatively pleasing circulated example of this challenging early colonial era type.，PCGS# 42.，，Collector tag included.
