Victoria 50 Cents 1900 MS64 PCGS, London mint, KM6. The penultimate date from the series presents an obverse with evenly-toned, steel-gray color and champagne iridescence that encircles the legends, providing a pleasing frame for the well-styled portrait of Victoria. The reverse, while complimentary in nature, differs significantly from its counterpart, expressing a stormy mixture of russet and graphite patina that clings to the devices and canvasses the entire side in dramatic fashion. Even to the unaided eye, the design elements appear bold and the fields remain clear of any discernible imperfections aside from a small series of ticks across the Queen's neck. A superb representative of this relatively short-lived issue, highly-collectible in this near-Gem designation.Ex. Norweb Collection
