1773 Counterfeit George III British Farthing, Simian Family. 29.0 grains.Fine, some areas sharper. The obverse legend full, the reverse with the tops of BRITA off the planchet, the N following those letters gone. The date is weak at the final digit, but it is a 3, and the first digit is an unusual small J. Decent design detail in the obverse bust, weaker at Britannia’s head. Pre-strike planchet voids at the center of either side, appearing here as depressions in the metal. Medium brown, light marks from circulation, nothing unexpected for the grade. Nicely crude.
