With Period, Newman 25-M

1773 1/2 P Virginia Halfpenny, Period, N. 25-M, W-1580, R.2, MS64 Red PCGS. A die lump on the divider east of the Irish harp is the identifier for Newman 25-M. Although Virginia halfpennies are available in Mint State, relatively few retain full Red color. This Choice representative displays toning on the high points, but the remainder of the coin is orange-gold. Marks are absent, and the strike shows minor incompleteness. Listed on page 16 of the 2026 Guide Book.
