1722 Scarce King George I "Woods" Hibernia Halfpenny Irish coin made for British Colonies and used in the U.S.

This authentic coin is currently listed as an Official U.S. coin within the Red Book under Colonial coins. Hibernia denotes the creation of coins under Ireland for Great Britain's Colonies.


The 1724 farthing is one of the toughest to find.
