Hawaii Token. 1871 12 1/2Cents. Wailuku Plantation. Narrow Starfish. Copper. EF-40 PCGS.
Rich golden tan throughout. Obverse: HI above a “narrow” five-pointed star fish. 10 stars around. Reverse: WP at top, 12 ½ at center, 1871 below, three stars on each side. The first 1 of the date is backward in the die with its flag to the viewer’s right. This rare and crude issue, struck from nearly comical hand-made dies, was among the first of the Hawaii tokens to be listed in the Red Book. Choice for the grade with smooth surfaces that stand up admirably to close-in inspection.
PCGS Population: 4; 3 finer (AU-50 finest).
