Victoria gold Prooflike Restrike 10 Rupees 1878-(b) PL65 NGC, Bombay mint, KM495, S&W-6.2. Reeded edge with older bust of Victoria. It would be a challenge to find any problems with this resplendent gem example, offering gorgeous eye appeal at every turn, not a single issue nor larger instance of contact to deter the eye. Not only is the strike full and admirable, but the faces are bordered by broad, sharp rims, with only undiminished prooflike reflectivity contained in the fields within. Rarely is so impressive an example encountered, offering a rare chance to collectors seeking the near-peak of quality certified for the type to-date.
