Victoria Specimen "Small Date - Plain Edge" 5 Cents 1858 SP63 PCGS, London mint, KM2. Small date, Plain edge variety. Wholly original in its appearance, with warm golden hues at the legends and a crescent of cerulean against the reverse denticles. The usual weakness to Victoria's braid is observed, as is a characteristic reverse die crack. An altogether sharp representative of this first year in the series, and a superb companion piece to the SP64 Large Date example also for offer in this sale.
