Offered is an interesting 1774-dated Brutus Sextus / Britannia evasion ½ Penny, Atkins#25, Coleman#EH-10a. This piece bears the scarcer of the two dates known for this type, and retains decent detail, especially considering that the dies were prepared to look worn. An original ebony patina rounds out this coin, which is decidedly better in hand.
