Description
A Machin's Mills counterfeit halfpenny bearing the fictitious date 1747. The use of this much earlier date indicates the counterfeiters sometimes chose dates that would correspond to genuine British halfpennies known to be in colonial circulation.
Rarity Notes
Very rare. Unusual early date for Machin's production.
