Halfcrown 1921 ESC 768, Bull 3722, Davies 1678 dies 3C, UNC toned, in an LCGS holder and graded LCGS 80, Note: Halfcrowns of the 1920-1925 period very hard to find in grades 80 and above, due to weak strikes, poor metal mix, many have poorly prepared blanks too, they are also liable to heavy bagmarking, so given all these minting problems, only a small percentage will even have a chance to achieve high grades in third party holders

Halfcrown 1674 VICESIMO SEXTO ESC 476 a bold Fine, Rare, rated R2 by ESC, we note that our archive database stretching back to 2003 does not show any sales of this date, we therefore suspect rarer than the catalogues state, indeed the same database shows 3 transactions of 1680 (R3) and 1682 (R2) Halfcrowns each and 2 transactions of 1678 (R4) in the same time
Halfcrown 1678 ESC 480 Fine with some light haymarking on the obverse and some heavier haymarking on the reverse, Very Rare rated R4 by ESC, only the second example of this date we have handled and by far the finest
