Description
George III Proof Farthing 1806, S3782, P1389 (scarce), copper, PR65 BN NGC, a Gem example of this Soho Mint issue, the "BN" designation something of a mystery to the cataloguer because this specimen retains much of its original mint red color, which is now golden, just fading slightly, and sheathed by delightful hues of violet and green iridescence. The mirrored fields are brightly reflective. A splendid piece in every way.From the Exeter College Collection
Metal: Bronze Plated Copper
