Colonials
1788 1/2 P Georgivs III, Machin's Mills Halfpenny, Vlack 23-88A, W-8100, R.2, AU53 NGC. 118.5 grains. Die alignment: 180°. A firmer, more consistent strike than often seen provides this piece with a bold visual impression. George's hair is well-detailed and the mostly smooth surfaces have developed an attractive coffee-colored patina. Britannia's facial features are visible. A lovely coin. The obverse die was also used to strike 1787-dated halfpennies, which were in fact struck after this 1788-dated piece. Listed on page 69 of the 2018 Guide Book.
