Description
George VI Dollar 1939, KM38, Matte Specimen 67 PCGS, Ex: Pittman. PCGS has incorrectly listed this as a Mirror Specimen. A one-year type with the Royal Visit reverse. In 1939 as World War II loomed, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth (now known as the Queen Mother), began a month-long tour of the Dominion of Canada, the first by a reigning monarch. The Specimen commemorative silver Dollars are found with both matte and mirror finishes, of which the mirror version is far more elusive. This piece, one of the five finest at PCGS with the mirror finish, is brilliant silver-white, well mirrored, and highly attractive. A popular issue; the Latin inscription on the reverse, FIDE SUORUM REGNAT, translates to "He reigns by the faith of his people."From the Canadiana Collection
