Description
British Colony. Victoria silver Proof 1/2 Cent 1891-(c) PR65 PCGS, Calcutta mint, KM91a, Prid-228b. A thoroughly pleasing rendition of this off-metal striking, showcasing both conditional and aesthetic superiority. Likely struck for presentation purposes, with a handful of original sets seen at market in recent decades, the piece relays ample reflectivity and a covetable polychrome patina that is among the finest witnessed on the fleeting silver strikings. One of just four currently certified between both grading services, and the sole finest, and certainly a prime target for the British colonial specialist.From the Peh Family Collection

1891-(c)年英屬錫蘭1/2分精製銀幣。PR65 PCGS。
加爾各答造幣廠。這枚異質幣的鑄工天衣無縫，不論品相和外觀都無與倫比。此幣應是用作展示用途，在過往數十年間曾見幾套於市場上亮相。此幣發行時間甚短，泛映著閃爍銀光，並包覆著迷人悅目的多彩包漿，外觀無出其右。此為兩大評級公司合計僅四例之一，分數更獨佔鰲頭。對於英國殖民地錢幣收藏家而言實為不二之選。
