- 1793/2 Ship Halfpenny. Musante GW-20, Baker-18, W-10855. Rarity-3. Copper. Lettered Edge. EF-40 (PCGS). Boldly toned in a blend of olive-copper and golden-brown, this handsome coin is well defined for the grade apart from the typical softness of strike over Washington's head and in the center of the reverse. Satiny surfaces are smooth, problem free, and visually appealing. With a similar bust to that seen on the Washington Large and Small Eagle cents of 1791, the dies for the 1793/2 Ship halfpenny are also attributed to prolific English engraver John Gregory Hancock. PCGS# 734. NGC ID: 2B7J. Provenance: From the LJV Philadelphia Collection. Earlier from Pine Tree Auctions' Promised Lands Sale, 1974, lot 357.
