A Trio of 1773-dated Counterfeit George III British Farthings.The first is from the Topless Ordinals Family, with an inverted A for V in GEORGIVS, as in the above lot. 51.0 grains, Fine, slightly off-center, the tops of ITAN off the planchet. Medium brown, the obverse with a couple light laminations, the reverse significant pock-mark like planchet flaws at the center. The second is a Simian Family. 26.4 grains, Very Good. The obverse die misaligned so that III REX is off the planchet, while the reverse legend is full; date weak, but matched to a known 1773 die. Darker brown, the obverse with some raised green verdigris at the lower part, the reverse cleaner. The final is from a family that has not yet been researched. 54.0 grains, Fine. A well-made counterfeit, with legends and design detail of good quality, the two 7’s in the date smaller than the other numbers. A diebreak at the branch gives it the look of a wishbone. Lighter brown, a couple obverse corrosion spots and some light roughness at the weakly struck part of the head. An interesting study group, with three different families represented. Three coins in the lot.
