Description
Highly Rare Penal Colony Token
Penal Colony. Victoria Rupee Token 1861 XF45 Brown NGC,
KM-Tn1, Prid-1. Variety with central hole. An exceptionally scarce
token designed for this settlement that the British government
first proposed in 1855, but did not formally begin constructing
until late in 1857 after the First Indian War of Independence. To
date, this is the first example we have offered in over 20 years,
NGC and PCGS recording just 7 total examples in their censuses, the
finest of which is an AU55. Though showing some minor contact to
the surfaces, this proves far from distracting, with an even walnut
hue dressing the surfaces and lightening as it reaches the
rims.From the Archipelago Collection
