Great Britain
Pair of Certified 1/2 Pennies, includes:
1) William and Mary tin 1692 - XF45 NGC, KM475.2
2) George II 1734/3 - Fine Details (Corrosion) NGC, KM566
An intriguing pairing of issues, the William & Mary tin 1/2 Penny (featuring a small copper plug in the center as a way to prevent counterfeiting) having previously hammered for $800 in our World Coins Auction #3045 in 2016 (Lot #33714). The George II 1/2 Penny also appears to be somewhat conservatively graded, featuring a certain sharpness even with the general shallowness of the strike.
