1787 Machins Mills Halfpenny. Vlack 17-87A, W-7900. Rarity-2. GEORGIVS III, Group II. EF-40 (PCGS).107.3 grains. An impressive example showing an attractive patina of olive-green and dark chocolate hues. The surfaces are negligible granular under magnification but remain smooth and well-composed to the naked eye. Each side shows a well-centered strike and the central definition is truly exceptional for the issue. Seldom offered this fine and without problems.From the Cohasco Collection of Colonials formed by Sir Philip H. Snyder, circa 1963-68.
