***Auction Highlight*** Circa 1670 St. Patrick Quarter Pence NJ (1/4p) Graded f12 details By SEGS. Up for Auction is the Ultra Rare New Jersey Colonial ÒSaint PatrickÓ Farthing. 86.0 grains. There is considerable gloss to both sides of this antique copper and medium brown St. Patrick's farthing. Central detail is suitably bold, although less-than-perfect centering, uneven wear, and roughness in the planchet have obscured the peripheral detail along the right obverse, and lower right reverse borders. The Masonic punctuation in the form of three dots is faint, yet discernible on the obverse after the word REX. All in all, a relatively pleasing circulated example of this challenging early colonial era type.
