This coin was lot 9425 in Ponterio sale 150 (Los Angeles, August 2009), where it sold for $391. The catalog description[1] noted, "GREAT BRITAIN. 1/2 Crown, 1844. Dipped, BRILLIANT UNCIRCULATED." The type was struck for circulation 1839-50 and features the bust of the young queen Victoria. A slightly revised bust was used 1874-87. The bust strongly resembles the one used on the crown but the half crown was issued in much larger numbers.
