Hong Kong
British Colony. Victoria Specimen 5 Cents 1875-H SP68 PCGS, Heaton mint, KM5, Prid-120 (unlisted in Proof or Specimen), Sweeny-HK4. An in all respects astounding grade both for the type and for any minor of this age, unsurprisingly tied for the finest certified across NGC and PCGS combined. Truly immaculate from all angles, with the surfaces not revealing even the smallest imperfection under magnification, the central regions feature russet hues that fade to cooler colors towards the edges. Unimaginable finer, and the perfect type coin.
