British Colony. George V Proof "Waitangi" Crown 1935 MS64 PCGS, KM6, Dav-433. Mintage: 468. A classic world crown in all regards, this example showcases above-average reflectivity with delicate iridescent tone over both sides. A Gem if not for several instances of coin to coin contact in the field in front of George's portrait. It is generally accepted that the entire mintage of this type was struck in Proof format, and we assume the "MS" designation given by PCGS was made in error.
Estimate: 3000-4000 USD
