Sale 31: The Pre-Long Beach Auction May 30 - June 1, 2005
             

             
            Lot 2309Great Britain. Halfpenny, 1719. S.3660; Peck-793. George I. 
            Second obverse. With nearly full mint luster. A little weakness of 
            striking on the King's hair- as often occurs, but overall a superbly 
            well struck coin. Excessively rare, and all the more remarkable 
            because obverse 2 is much rarer than obverse 1. NGC graded MS-64 Red 
            & Brown. 
            Estimated Value $1,750-2,000. 

            Provenance: The Cheshire Collection.
             Realized $1,600
