Cape of Good Hope. British Colony bronze Pattern Penny 1889-V MS63 BN NGC, KM-Pn3, Hern-C4A. Moderate handling in the fields defines the grade, but the eye-appeal remains at a premium level, with a blend of blue-green, cobalt-blue and magenta iridescent tone over highly reflective fields. Significantly rarer than the Victoria-busted type, and the first example in this metal that we have offered. Certain to attract strong interest.
Estimate: 2000-3000 USD
