Description
George VI Proof Halfcrown 1949, S4106, PF66 NGC, extremely rare Proof of Record, a glorious and truly superb copper-nickel proof, deep mirror pools of glinting reflection, full proof impression, delicate "brilliant gray" surfaces about as fine as a C-N piece could be. Do not confuse the tiny mint-created die-transfer marks on the portrait with marks. NGC did not. They knew what these are, and they gave this great coin a fitting numerical grade. Nonpareil and irreplaceable once sold. Last of the Proofs of Record of this king, as the following two years special sets were made for commercial sale.From the Exeter College Collection
Metal: Copper-Nickel
Diameter: 32.30mm
