In the last year I have sold off all of my lower grade coins and banknotes to concentrate on higher grade and key date items such as those posted on this forum but dont have to flip too often these days

WOW.. What a beautiful looking coin..

That one deserves 2 'drools'

I see it says 'wide date' is the narrow date more rare?

There are three variations in the date spacing and alignment for the 1913 half penny, the two most commonly attributed are the wide date and narrow date Variety

A coin which features a slightly different design from that which is normally seen
varieties though a third exists which is similar to the narrow date except with a slight variance in the alignment of the '9'

I bet this one is going to look awesome in different light angles. Let us know when it arrives and see if you can get some different photos. Looks light blue purple/pink and a bit of gold could show up nicely.
