(1652-74) St. Patrick Farthing, Martin 9a.1-Fc.10, Griffee 75-6/5a, Breen-216, R7 PCGS graded VG10. Type with "Two Annulets Below King." Attractive glossy light to medium brown with chocolate toning in protected areas. Smooth with only trivial marks, very nice for the grade. The splasher is bright and it covers most of the crown with ample "splashes" to the left. The planchet is a bit thin at the rim left of the crown, and that caused strike weakness there and in the opposing area at K-1 on the reverse. Martin lists only 5 examples of this die pairing in his census. Both sides of this piece are plated in the 2018 Martin reference. Weight 77.6 grains. The attribution and Martin Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. 916196.10/47375132 Ex Clem Schettino 11/14/2008-Jim LaSarre 12/2009-Sydney F.
