1760 Voce Populi Halfpenny Nelson-4 Rarity-3 VF35. Choice glossy medium chocolate brown blending to darker chocolate and olive brown in protected areas. A beautiful example for the grade, clearly choice in every respect. Struck very slightly off center to K-7 on the obverse and K-10.5 on the reverse. The border beads on the obverse are complete but the tops of HIBERN on the reverse are tight to the edge or slightly off the planchet. A common variety but very nice as a type coin. Listed on page 49 in the "Redbook." Weight 127.2 grains.
Estimated Value $200-UP.
