Edward VII "Edwardian Leaves" 50 Cents 1910 MS64 PCGS, Ottawa mint, KM12a. Edwardian leaves variety. A specular coin that bears the modified reverse developed by W.H.J. Blakemore in 1910, resulting in several leaves being made smaller, a changed cross atop the crown, and widened rims. This new variety was termed the "Edwardian Leaves Reverse" by collectors, and is considered rare. This present specimen nearly reaches the gem level of presentation, with original dove-gray tone that darkens at the edges, a subtle satin texture that reveals superb luster on rotation, and raised features that retain their as-struck sharpness throughout.
