George V 3 Pence 1922/1-(m) XF Details (Cleaning) PCGS Genuine, Melbourne mint, KM24. Mintage: 900. The only certified example of this great rarity from George V's 3 pence series, the fields possessing a mottled silver and slate gray patina, the noted cleaning appearing to be relatively unobtrusive and having left the piece with a considerable quantity of eye appeal. This issue remains one of the most coveted in the pre-decimal series, with some sources indicating that only 10 examples had been discovered as late as the 1970s. By all regards a stellar numismatic treasure, one most bidders will almost certainly never encounter again.
