Lot 98
1760 Voce Populi Halfpenny Nelson-4 Rarity-3 AU55. Attractive glossy light chocolate brown with slightly darker steel brown toning on the highpoints of the obverse. Mint luster covers the fields and protected areas on both sides. Just a hint of friction on the highpoints from mint state. Clearly one of the finest known of this "Older Head" variety. A straight-edge planchet clip affects the dentils above the head and the opposing area at the bottom of the 1 in the date. Weight 108.2 grains.
Estimated Value $650-UP.
Reportedly from the DiBello sale 1970.
