Victoria 50 Cents 1890-H XF40 PCGS, Heaton mint, KM6. A classic Canadian rarity, rare and avidly collected in any grade due to its minuscule mintage of just 20,000. Generally appearing for sale in VF grades or lower, this XF40 is positively premium for the type and highly pleasing for the certified grade. Evenly worn across its highest surfaces, Victoria retains full detail to her face with the majority of rub confined to her hair and cheek; the centers are an argent-silver, darkening in the peripheries to a smokey pewter tone. This year is missing from many collections, and the chance to obtain one as relatively highly certified as this should not be missed by dedicated collectors of the Canadian series.
