This specimen was lot 20074 in Ponterio sale 176 (Chicago, August 2013), where it sold for $12,925. The catalog description[1] noted, "GREAT BRITAIN. Edward VI, 1547-1553. Half Sovereign, ND (1549-50). Arrow. Tower Mint. Choice Uncrowned Bust Half Sovereign S-2435; North-1892; Fr-181a. 83.8 grains. Uncrowned bust right. Rv. Crowned garnished shield, ‘E R’ flanking. A very attractive, well struck example on a fully round flan with full legends. A very subtle patch of flan porosity is noted in the left obverse field. Lightly wiped once and a bit bright, though still a superior example of this important class type. Very Fine. Ex: Sotheby’s, 1981."
