1/2 Penny - Indian Copper Pattern

Beschrijving voorzijde	A standing figure of a Native American depicted in full length at center, holding a bow in one hand, rendered in a bold, primitively engraved style consistent with colonial American die-cutting. The legend PROVINCE OF MASSA. runs along the lower portion of the field in Latin script. The overall composition is attributed to the engraving of Paul Revere, reflecting the rudimentary but historically significant craftsmanship of the period. The coin specimen shown bears a post-mint suspension hole at left.
