Description
George V 10 Cents 1920, KM23a, MS67 PCGS. The last year that Canadian coins were struck with a sterling fineness (.925 silver) was in 1919, and in 1920 the composition was changed to 80% silver, 20% copper. Splendid reddish-gold and violet toning covers both sides of this virtually immaculate Superb Gem. A loupe locates only a couple of pin-sized marks. Coruscating satiny luster complements the boldly struck design elements. This is the only coin graded MS67 by PCGS, with none finer (7/09). An outstanding piece worthy of an important collection.From the Canadiana Collection
