Cf. Schneider 58-66 (for type); North 1223; SCBC 1500. Some scuffing. Near VF. Very rare.

Known as the Cursing Half noble due to the omission of the NE in the reverse legend, giving a reading “Lord, Rebuke Me in Thine Anger!” Most examples of this scarce type are found with annulets around the central panel on reverse whereas this specimen has pellets.
