1775 Machins Mills Halfpenny. Vlack 4-75A, W-7780. Rarity-4. GEORGIVS III, Group I. VF-25 BN (NGC).Deep charcoal-copper patina with areas of somewhat lighter rose-brown over the central high points and in isolated field areas. All design elements are boldly outlined, the strike nicely centered on the planchet with traces of denticulation in a few isolated areas. Microgranular throughout, yet free of sizeable blemishes with a relatively smooth appearance in hand. All in all, a pleasing mid grade example of a conditionally challenging die pairing, the finest examples of which are EF.Collector envelope with attribution notation included.
