1771 George Half Penny [solved]

4 posts
Yet another Dilemma  8. ..... I got this 1771 half penny Today that I need opinions on whether it looks genuine or not.

Size is correct weight is also correct.

I have checked it next to a picture of several different 1771 half pennies and cannot see anything that doesn't match.

Opinions?

I keep checking and looking around trying to find something off with it but everything matches, even down to the fine details under my scope.

It would be a good idea to get this sent off and professionally graded by NGC wouldn't it?  8.
