1942 Melbourne Halfpenny PCGS MS63RB
The 1942 Melbourne halfpenny is one of those dates that just doesn’t come up too often. My research indicates that in the last four years the date has appeared on the market in a PCGS holder just four times. This isn’t surprising, considering PCGS has only graded twenty coins in Mint State (December 2013). Make no mistake about it: This is a rare date. The coin photographed above is in a very respectable grade of PCGS MS63RB. Colouring is even and there is good underlying brilliance on both ‘verses. The new owner will be pleased to add this coin to a high-quality PCGS Set Registry Set. Professional Coin Grading Service is the global leader in coin authentication and grading. With over 60 million coins graded and counting, PCGS is trusted by collectors, dealers, and investors to certify authenticity, protect value, and elevate market confidence. This is a direct conversion of the 70-point PCGS grade to a 10-point scale, intended to present the grade in a more intuitive format for newer collectors. It is not our personal opinion or an attempt at regrading the coin to a different standard.
