Description

William IV Proof Farthing 1831, S3848, P1468, PF66 PCGS, bronzed, coin-die axis orientation, open 3 in date, a superb specimen, marvelous chocolate brown surfaces, deep proof impression -- all anyone could want in an "FDC" example of this coronation coinage. Rare. Mintage was just a couple of hundred pieces (one source claimed 225 coins). Seemingly undervalued, or modestly priced, as catalogue valuations have changed little in decades.
From the Exeter College Collection
