1772 Machins Mills Halfpenny. Vlack 6-72A, W-7720. Rarity-6. GEORGIVS III, Group I, Small Date. Very Good, Rough.104.3 grains. A well centered example of this scarce variety that retains bold outline definition to virtually all design elements. Significant lack of detail is confined to the letters EO IN GEORGIVS, AN in BRITANNIA and the branch hand, all of which devices are still partially discernible. Dominant deep brown patina, the surfaces free of significant marks, yet overall rough with prominent pitting in the centers.
