Description
1723 Rosa Americana Twopence
MS64 Single Finest Certified
1723 2PENCE Rosa Americana Twopence MS64 Brown PCGS.
Breen-92. Stop after REX, no stop after date. A satiny and sharply
struck near-Gem with consistent medium brown toning. The fields and
devices are refreshingly unabraded. The single finest
PCGS-certified example. NGC has yet to certify any above MS62
(6/07). William Wood purchased a coinage patent from King George I,
and struck a number of issues for Ireland and the American
colonies. These included Rosa Americana halfpennies, pennies, and
twopence, as well as Hibernia farthings and halfpennies. Ireland
largely rejected the Wood coinage, and the patent was abandoned in
1725. Listed on page 41 of the 2008 Guide Book.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2ASZ, PCGS# 128, Greysheet# 35)
