    Description

    1751 Crude King George III “Simian” Copper Colonial Era Halfpenny, Colonial USA, Strong J for last 1 in 1751, Scarce Exceptional Non-Regal.
    Great Choice coin. Very clean!
    Referred to as Simian due to the ape like arms on Reverse, considered by most as the most collectible of the Non-Regals. Usually George III, but Simians have also been George II coins as well! This is one of those coins!
    Obverse is well struck with good detail, the Reverse is well struck and featured with a strong J for the last 1 in 1751.
    Exceptional.

    This represents a part of Colonial Coinage used here in America, and Great Britain this Hibernia or Irish coin was due to the shortage of copper and general scarcity due to the Revolutionary War and population increases throughout the Colonies and the British Isles. Limited coins were produced from 1769-1775 (and then none until 1805-1807 none until his death in 1820) this led to creating of Non-Regal coins both with George III's likeness as well as Conder or Provincial Tokens also used here in the United States.
    Scarcity of early coinage in America where denominations were used primarily from Great Britain but other colonizing nations as well, the value was in the material either copper or silver, so almost any country's currency would pass hands.
    Kings and Queens of Great Britain:
    William and Mary   1689-1702
    Anne                       1702-1714
    George I                  1714-1727
    George II                 1727-1760
    George III                1760-1820
    Historically important date during the colonization of America and our history.
    Thanks for your consideration.
