LOT 117 Middlesex Spence Copper Halfpenny DH 765, scarce
18th Century Provincial Tokens, Middlesex
London, Little Turnstile, Thomas Spence; D&H 765, halfpenny struck in copper, 12.69g. Popular Native American reverse. Very bold both sides with reverse struck from a relatively early strike since with later issues showing heavily reworked fields. We’ve often seen the grading companies mistakenly “body-bag” those examples as damaged – they are not. However, this piece, very attractive with hints of original colour, scarce. Extremely fine.
