Great Britain
Victoria Proof 1/2 Crown 1839 PR64 PCGS, KM740, S-3885 var. (medal alignment, incorrect on holder), ESC-2713 (R3). Plain edge. Medal alignment. A sublime example of this Proof coronation issue, and easily among the most visually captivating we've seen, with vibrant iridescent tone in blue-green, magenta and orange-peach hue that sweeps over the obverse surface, while small windows of brilliance are left open on the reverse centers, with many of the same surrounding color shades. An absolute gem in terms of eye-appeal, and as a result, a perfect coin for the collector attempting to acquire choice examples of Britain's early presentation issues.
