Newfoundland. Victoria 5 Cents 1873 XF40 ICCS, London mint, KM2. Obverse 1; Dot Before and After Newfoundland. Sharply detailed for the grade with numerous marks in the reverse centers that likely prevented a higher numeric grade. Nonetheless, a rare date, and extremely rare when found struck with the first obverse die. Amazingly, only the second example we have offered of the type, with the a last example being an PCGS Fine12 (unidentified as an Obverse 1 issue in the lot) that brought $646.25 in a November 2012 auction.
Estimate: 4500-5500 USD
