Undated (ca. 1652-1674) St. Patrick Farthing. Martin 1c.28-Da.9, W-11500. Rarity-6+. Copper. Nothing Below King. EF Details--Excessive Corrosion (PCGS).
95.2 grains. A late die state example with heavy flowlines at the peripheries and a die crack down from the top of the reverse to the crosier. Corroded, yes, mostly on the obverse, but the level of detail and traces of mint luster where the surface is still smooth is quite remarkable for a St. Patrick farthing.
PCGS# 42.
