1827 George IV Halfpenny
The half penny issues of George IV differed from the those of previous monarchs in that they were struck by the Royal Mint to a high standard and in numbers adequate to supply demand without merchants being forced to resort to their own token issues. Another notable feature of George IV's bronze coinage is that the olive branch that had been held in Britannia in earlier issues, symbolising peace, has disappeared from her hand, although the trident and shield, symbolising a willingness to go to war and defend Britain's shores remain!
