Undated Counterfeit George II British Farthing, Simian Family. 15.8 grains.Good or a bit better, but weakly struck, the planchet bent and straightened at one point – and at under 20% of regal weight, bending would be very easy to do. Most of the obverse legend is visible, the tops of II REX off the planchet as centered, a diebreak from the E of REX to the head, which may help attribute when this chapter is written. Only the BRI of BRITAN is visible, while NIA is strong, the date off the planchet as centered. Medium brown, with the mentioned bend and light surface roughness, though this is mostly the original planchet quality in the weakly struck areas. Any George II Simian is automatically scarce, and some are quite rare.
