George I Proof "Dump" 1/2 Penny 1717 PR64+ Brown PCGS, KM549, P-772. Plain edge. A stunning and rare early proof copper, in a covetable level of certification. Sleek, light chocolate fields with a great deal of original reflectivity sit behind darker, more pronounced devices, a contrast satisfying to the eye. George's portrait gleams with original luster giving an excellent sense of three-dimension to the already sharp strike. Overall a beautiful specimen not often encountered in any grade, let alone in this high a quality.
