Great Britain (London Mint), half crown, George II, 1745, with LIMA below bust, NGC XF details / surface hairlines. Sp-3695; KM-584.3. Nice example of this popular type commemorating the capture of tons of Spanish Peruvian silver and gold on the French ships Louis Erasmus and Marquis d'Antin in the North Atlantic by English Captains Morecock and Talbot on their privateer ships Duke and Prince Frederick (not, as commonly told, related to Commodore Anson's successes in the Pacific). Beautifully toned surfaces with minor hairlines, well-detailed bust and perhaps a bit nicer than the adjective grade suggests.
