GREAT BRITAIN. Bronzed 1/2 Penny Pattern Restrike, 1799. Soho (Birmingham) Mint. George III. NGC PROOF-65 Brown.
P-1260. A choice example. The provenance, linking this coin directly to an owner of the Soho Mint, Matthew Boulton, certainly adds a significant layer of desirability. Very similar to the example we sold as lot 43102 in our 2019 NYINC sale. A proof with reflective fields, frosty devices, and variable toning. A few small carbon spots are noted on both sides.
Ex: Boulton Family Collection.
Estimate: $400.00- $600.00
