Victoria "No LCW" 50 Cents 1870 XF Details (Polished) PCGS, London mint, KM6. One of the more coveted Canadian varieties, in which L.C.W. is omitted from the truncation to Victoria's portrait. Near-impossible to obtain in any decent grade, this XF example is a significant outlier for the type and boasts a strong visual appeal despite its polishing. Most specimens of this variety were heavily circulated before being pulled by collectors and as such have lost a great deal of their high points. Since its cleaning this piece has retoned to a dappled magenta and rich cobalt, elements of the original argent fabric peeking through to give a pleasing visual effect. A true must-have for the dedicated Canadian collector.
