George VI Mint Error - Missing Chromium Layer 5 Cents 1944 MS66 PCGS, Royal Canadian Mint, KM40a. A rare error whereby the planchet is missing the chromium layer that was applied to these issues, a fact clearly evident by the distinctly less blue (whiter) appearance to the flan. This specimen represents the first example of this error that we have encountered.
