Even with standards as high as mine, some dates you have to compromise on. Otherwise you'll be looking at a gap for a long time, and we collectors can't abide gaps. The compromise on this one is the little edge knock on the obverse.
Yes it's the commonest of the four die combinations of 1913 Penny. Yes, it really is aUNC - look at the fingers below the trident head.
Look how sharp the feathers on the wings of the harp are, and the lions faces. Just beautiful. Compare it with yours...
In my experience, high grade halfpennies are harder to come by than pennies from this era. More difficult than most other denominations, I'd say.
As well as an unusually good strike for a 1919, the lustre is attractive too.
Scarcer date in a nice high grade. A mature lustre, and without much of the streakiness common to 1920 pennies.
How often do you get to see the dots between B and M on the truncation? Compare this with yours - 1920 halfcrowns are not easy, with a slightly dodgy alloy and often weakly struck. Obv 1, Rev A. Scarce
Absolute hen's teeth in any better grade than this. The Scarcest date of the series, bar none.
As well as the well-known positioning of BM on the truncation, the other easy way to spot the Modified Head on 1926 silver is to look at the border teeth. Much longer on the the ME type.
A significantly better example than most you'll see, and you don't see that many. Peck: Very Scarce, Freeman: R5
