Description
(1670-75) St. Patrick Halfpenny, XF40
Very Rare Vlack 2-C
Possibly Finest Known
(1670-75) 1/2 P St. Patrick Halfpenny XF40 NGC. Breen-201, Vlack
2-C, W-11540. Ex: Long Island Collection. The O, R, and T in
FLOREAT are repunched. Breen called this variety "very rare," and
indeed it is, with only the Fine 12 NGC Partrick and VF35 NGC
Norweb-Partrick specimens seen in prior Heritage auctions.
Certainly, Vlack 1-A, 1-B, 4-E, and 5-D are more available. The
variety was missing from the Ford Collection. The Stack's Bowers
website shows only a single example, the VF25 NGC Roper specimen.
The present chocolate-brown and steel-gray coin is much nicer,
despite a few specks of aqua debris at the bottom of the king. The
brass splasher overlaps the right half of the crown. The reverse is
double struck, evident on St. Patrick's outstretched arm. Listed on
page 36 of the 2022 Guide Book.From The Long Island Collection, Part III.
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# AUAS, PCGS# 46, Greysheet# 408)
