1722 Woods Hibernia Halfpenny. Martin 1.1-A.1, W-12650. Rarity-7+. D: G: REX, Rocks at Right. VG Details--Holed (NGC).，Original medium brown patina and predominantly smooth, satin-textured surfaces provide remarkably strong eye appeal for this more affordable example. The strike is slightly off center to the upper obverse and lower reverse with extra flan along the border in the opposite areas. Both sides are fully denticulated, nonetheless, and all devices are boldly defined save for those affected by the stated qualifier, which concerns a square-shaped hole below King Georges bust. Not only is this a rare die marriage, but it is also the only one of the 1722 Woods Hibernia halfpenny with rocks to the right of the seated figure on the reverse. Nelson describes this type as the "rock halfpenny" pattern, and the few survivors are always regarded as highlights of advanced collections of U.S. colonial coinage. This is a pleasing coin for the assigned grade that is sure to catch the eye of specialized bidders.，PCGS# 164.，，
