Buyer's premium:

This collection comprises four late 18th-century copper alloy coinage pieces, individually housed in clear plastic bags with handwritten identification labels. The group includes three halfpennies and one penny. Specifically, the coins are identified as an “IRISH HALF PENNY 1760”, a “GEORG III HALFPENNIES 1772”, a “GEORGE III HALF PENNY 1799”, and a “GEORGE III PENNY 1797”. The obverses of these coins feature a profile bust of King George, with one clearly displaying the inscription “GEORGIUS III DEI GRATIA REX” (George III, by the Grace of God, King). The larger 1797 penny exhibits a seated figure of Britannia on its reverse.
