Cape of Good Hope. British Colony - Victoria bronze Proof Pattern Penny 1889 PR64 Red Brown NGC, Brussels mint, KM-X1, Hern-C9. Short horn variety. A glowing example of the type with a fiery melange of magenta and gold iridescence that surrounds the design illustrations in a halo of color. The overall allure of this selection is bold, and if not for a series of small contact marks across the Queen's bust, a finer designation may have been awarded.
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
