Description
1722 Hibernia Halfpenny, XF45
Rare Rocks Pattern, W-12650
1722 1/2 P Hibernia Halfpenny, Rocks on Right, M. 1.1-A.1,
W-12650, R.7, XF45 NGC. Ex: Robinson, Long Island Collection.
The rare Rocks variety is known in only one die pair, and is
regarded as a pattern for the Hibernia series. The significance of
the rock structure is unknown. The rich mahogany-brown surfaces are
free from marks, although narrow planchet flaws (as issued) near
the X in REX and Hibernia's left knee provide identifiers. The face
of the harp angel and the leaves in the king's hair confirm brief
service in commerce. It is remarkable that two examples are in the
Long Island Collection, given that none other have appeared in a
Heritage auction for more than four years. Listed on page 41 of the
2024 Guide Book.Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 921391, Base PCGS# 164)
