What you are bidding on is a 1845 Straits Settlement 1/2 Cent coin
with "WW" on truncation, actual limited mintage unknown
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This coin is a well preserved authentic piece of Straits Settlement(Malaysia) history, 179 years old. Given the unusual nature and uniqueness of this coin, with the "WW" on truncation, I decided to have it certified by NGC. "WW" IS THE ENGRAVERS INITIALS. HIS NAME WAS WILLIAM WYON, chief engraver at the royal mint. I was very pleased when they certified it as About Uncirculated(AU) details. Nice dark Brown color. I was surprised however when they also identified the coin had been cleaned sometime in the past. As certified and guaranteed the coin is 100% authentic.
I highly value all of my clients on eBay and I will ALWAYS make sure you are happy with your transaction. Payments must be received within 3 days of auction closing or item may be subject to re-list.
I have tried to do free shipping on all my coins as long as I can. However, now with the high cost of USPS shipping I must add in a flat rate shipping charge on coin items. I am doing a FLAT RATE(including tracking) shipping of $5.75 on this domestic order. I will combine shipping costs if you purchase multiple auction items on the same invoice. Loc Khx24
