George II 1736 (ca. 1794) Evasion Farthing - Glorious Howe Type
Offered is a scarce and fascinating evasion Farthing, disseminated around 1794, and likely alluding to Admiral Howe, Hero of the Napoleonic Wars, Coleman#EF482. This example is in decent condition for the issue, which was likely struck to give the appearance of heavy circulation so as to facilitate acceptance in trade. A wonderful little evasion.
