George VI 6-Piece PCGS-Certified Specimen Set 1949,
1) Cent - SP64 Red and Brown PCGS, KM41
2) 5 Cents - SP66 PCGS, KM42
3) 10 Cents - SP66 PCGS, KM43
4) 25 Cents - SP66 PCGS, KM44
5) 50 Cents - SP66 PCGS, KM45
6) Dollar - SP66 PCGS, KM47
Royal Canadian mint, KM-SS44. An exceptionally high-end set, with the silver and nickel issues remaining essentially tone-free and the cent displaying a charming melange of toning. All but the cent have the John Pittman pedigree on the PCGS holder, and from the catalog plates, we are able to match the 50 cent and dollar to lot 2501, the first of three 1949 sets sold in the 1999 offering of the Pittman material. We presume all the coins are actually from this lot.
Ex. Pittman Collection (Akers 8/1999)
