Description
George V 10 Cents 1918, KM23, MS68 PCGS. The 1918 had a substantial mintage due to increased demands from the wartime economy. Examples are easily available in almost all grades, but at the MS68 level this issue is an incredible rarity. Amazingly, only three Canadian 10 Cents struck before the year 2000 have been certified at that remarkable level. The present coin is the finest 1918 dime graded by PCGS (7/09).This memorable example boasts spectacular semi-prooflike reflectivity beneath attractive toning. A medley of lilac, gold, hazel, and silver-gray drapes both sides. The strike is full, and the surfaces appear flawless to the unaided eye. This piece would be a highlight of any collection.
