Halfcrown 1817 Bull Head, S over I in PENSE, unlisted by the 1992 ESC, Bull lists as I over S (?) Bull 2092 and listed as Rarity 3, UNC or very near so with some very minor spots, a crisp strike with choice fields and subtle touches of golden tone in the legends, compares favourably with the Ex-Colin Adams example sold in London Coins Auction A130 5th September 2010 (Lot 1328), a superb piece and fully justifying it's rarity rating, indeed, our archive database stretching back 20 years confirms this is only the third such piece we have offered.
Halfcrown 1920 Davies 1672N struck in a hard nickel type alloy and weighing 12.43 grammes. There are 1924 trial nickel shillings, with a very rare example struck metrically weighing 5 gr. The 1672N Halfcrown listed here may also be a Royal Mint trial, when a complete elimination of silver seemed feasible. There appears to be an interesting 'privy' mark, introduced by a thicker down stroke to the 'D' of 'Dei' with the top serif of this 'D' being double struck. The border bead above is also oversized (wider). This would be an odd occurrence for any counterfeiter, especially on top of striking perfectly die-cut, but lightweight coins in this hard metal, and having excellent milling. a similar example was listed in Auction A151 6/12/2015 (Lot 2687, weight 11.92 grammes, realised £120 hammer price), the description then stating that only 6 of these examples were then known to the vendor Near Fine/VG a highly unusual type, in an LCGS holder and graded LCGS 15, Ex-Colin Adams collection
