Description

Victoria Proof Shilling 1893, S3940, PR67 NGC, Old Head, a superb gem, from the same source as the proof sixpence and threepence coins in this collection, but here the surfaces are slightly dappled, the portrait highlighted in violet-mauve iridescence, the reverse a glittering jewel of royal-blue and magenta iridescence atop glittering mirror surfaces. The cataloguer has seen a total of two of these graded PR67, none graded higher.
