Victoria 'First 8/5' 10 Cents 1858 XF40 PCGS, London mint, KM3. First 8 in date struck over a 5. An extremely rare and popular overdate on this first-year issue. Scarcely represented in higher grades, this XF40 is premium for the type and pleasing in its appearance; the overdate is clear, the detail still considerable despite circulation rub to the high points, the planchet lightly toned at the peripheries. Scarcely offered and hard to match, a covetable specimen of this Canadian rarity sure to appeal to dedicated type collectors.
