Description

1773 1/2 P Virginia Halfpenny, No Period, N. 5-Z, W-1600, R.4, MS64 Red PCGS. Eight harpstrings.

To our knowledge, this Choice representative is the sole N. 5-Z example certified as full Red by PCGS. The coin is predominantly olive-gold, but shows hints of russet toning on the right reverse margin. Listed on page 16 of the 2026 Guide Book.
