(1) 1940 HALF PENNY (OVER 73 YEARS OLD)

There were two different types of the Half Penny struck during the Reign of George VI. A minor variation between the 2 can barely be noticed. The reverse continued the new design depicting the Golden Hind (the ship sailed by Sir Francis Drake) created for Edward VIII's Half Penny rather than using the traditional Britannia. Edwards bust was facing left on both designs and the Golden Hind is also heading left. The reverse design was by Thomas Humphrey Paget. Both types were struck in bronze and the reverse inscription on both types reads "HALF PENNY" with the date at the bottom in the exergue.

I purchased this Half Penny awhile ago and recently discovered I had a few of them. IT WILL MAKE AN EXCELLENT ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION... PLUS.... ITS A MUST HAVE & FUN TO OWN!! The coin is in good condition (see pics) but I am no expert so I wont try to grade it. I think it looks great for being 73 years old. Im guessing the coin was once found in circulation, collected and later sold to me. I did not buy it new, get it out of a set or straight from the mint. Look through the photos and decide for yourself though! FREE SHIPPING!! The coin is stored in a small plastic bag and shipped in it too! Sorry, no returns as I am limited on time.
********THIS WILL BE A SHORT AUCTION & IF BIDS GET OVER 5000, I WILL ADD ANOTHER COIN (NOT SAME ONE BUT CONDITION WILL BE
WHO KNOWS MAYBE I WILL BE SHIPPING THIS HALF PENNY TO YOU...GOOD LUCK!!
