Victoria bronzed Proof 1/2 Penny 1853 PR65 Brown NGC, KM726a, S-3949. A sublime Gem survivor from Victoria's most enigmatic proof set. The bronzing has created a mahogany coloring on the planchet a far more subdued red than brown, its color full and original; Victoria's young portrait has met with hardly any hardship, a minute mark on her neck the sole evidence that this coin is not fresh from the mint. Outstanding eye appeal, a choice Victorian copper rarity in an elite grade.
