Description

Conditionally Rare AU St. Patrick Farthing

(1670-75) FARTH St. Patrick Farthing AU50 PCGS. Breen-208, nothing below king. An unusually high grade for this workhorse Early American import, which is often encountered sufficiently worn or corroded that some design elements cannot be identified. The present chocolate-brown example has bold legends and clear types. The surfaces are surprisingly unabraded and lack verdigris. A few small pits on the king are as made. The obverse is slightly misaligned toward 11 o'clock, but the crown and all letters are fully present. Population: 4 in 50, 6 finer (6/08).

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# AUAR, PCGS# 42, GSID# 409)
