George V Specimen 10 Cents 1928 SP64 PCGS, Ottawa mint, KM23a. One of just two examples certified by NGC or PCGS - one of the rarest dates in the Specimen series by far. Whilst generally these rarities appear blast-white and essentially as made, this piece has developed a magnificent patina which firmly bolsters its visual appeal. Its centers are primarily a vibrant magenta, quickly intensifying into deep cobalt and finally terminating at the peripheries with a ring of bright butterscotch. Perfectly struck, with admirable sharpness to George's portrait. An overall wonder of a coin, and an offering unlikely to be repeated in the near future.
