Description
George V 5 Cents 1927, KM29, MS66 PCGS. An outstanding example, this beauty has satiny light gray luster beneath delightful pale champagne toning. The only shortcoming is a slightly weak strike, but every other aspect is outstanding. The Belzberg Collection had a Specimen 64, and the Norweb Collection had a MS60. This piece and one other PCGS MS66 coin are tied for the finest that service has ever graded (7/09). Before this appearance, the best we had offered was the MS64 Dominion Collection coin that we sold in September 2006. The specialist may wait many years for another opportunity to acquire the finest known example.From the Canadiana Collection
