You don't often see these this close to EF. It's a very attractive coin in the hand. What's not to like?
There are plenty of these about, so you can afford to wait till a nice one comes along. I think this is a really nice one.
Much more detail on this example than most you'll see, particularly in the King's hair. I am really starting to enjoy exploring Early Milled. I suggest you join me!
Spink describes this variety as "Extremely Rare", and doesn't give values, and ESC catalogues it as R3, also "Extremely Rare". Davies, however, estimates them to be around 1 in 10 of 1826 shillings. Personally I think Davies might be a bit closer to the mark.
Common in low grades, quite rewarding in middle grades, but by the time you get to this level with these, they are serious coins. Take them seriously.
Nice strong example of what is fast becoming my favourite series. I just love the weight of 'em, and the surface texture, when they're this good.
Inverted Vs for As in GRATIA. This series is full of fascinating little varieties like this. I didn't just make this one up - it is documented in Chris Perkins' Collectors Coins GB
WW not obliterated. "One tenth of a pound". This coin was the first step towards decimalisation. It only took another 122 years. This one has had a bit of a buff, but probably a long time ago, and it has recovered well. It's a very attractive coin.
If you are looking at coins at this level then I don't have to tell you that the vast majority of 1862 halfpennies that you see are in a much worse state than this one.
Halfpennies are just as interesting as Bun Pennies as far as varieties are concerned. There's only two 1863s, but at least 15 types of 1861, for instance. They haven't gone crazy yet, like Bun Pennies have, but they should, and they might. This one is R10 in Freeman
