Ireland 1/2 phingin penny Free State KM-10 Pig PR 64 PCGS bronze coin 1928

The 1928 Ireland Free State 1/2 Pingin Halfpenny, KM-10, is a delightful bronze coin certified PCGS PR64 Proof. Its obverse features the traditional Irish Celtic harp with finely engraved strings, an ornamental wooden frame, elegant scrollwork, and the divided date 1928. The reverse presents a charming farmyard scene designed by Percy Metcalfe: a large sow walking with her head lowered, accompanied by several tiny piglets beneath her body. Carefully modeled ears, snout, legs, hooves, and rounded contours bring the animals to life. The 1/2d denomination, Irish lettering, artist's PM initials, and beaded borders complete the composition. Introduced during the Irish Free State's first national coinage program, this design celebrates rural traditions, agriculture, and Ireland's cultural independence. Its appealing animal imagery, historical significance, and impressive PCGS Proof grade make it a wonderful addition to any collection of Irish coins!
