Description
British Colony. Victoria silver Proof 5 Cents 1891-(c) PR65 PCGS, Calcutta mint, KM93a, Prid-181a. An aesthetically refined representative that clearly leaves an impression of visual balance and quality when viewed in-hand. The largest denomination in a fleeting few year series with presentation sets struck in silver, with examples of the 5 Cents seen at market once every five years, and rarely outside of these sets. Of impeccable quality that would elicit a coveted Gem assignment from PCGS, with a covetable eye appeal to boot. The finest of just four currently certified, and with a PR62 we sold last year for a handsome sum, can only imagine where this stunner will land.From the Peh Family Collection

1891-(c)年英屬錫蘭5分精製銀幣。PR65 PCGS。
加爾各答造幣廠。此幣外觀出類拔萃，在手上細看時呈現出均稱絕美的視覺效果。這套銀幣發行僅數年，此為當中的最大面值，並以白銀鑄造，往往相隔五年左右才見一例亮相，單枚而非成套出讓更是可遇不可求。從無懈可擊的品相足見PCGS的珍品分數實至名歸，魅力一時無倆。去年敝司所經手的一枚PR62成功斬獲可觀金額，而此幣評分在記錄的四例中更獨佔鰲頭，最終能創出何等佳績實在令人引頸以待。
