British India. Victoria gold Proof Restrike 10 Rupees 1879-(b) PR62 NGC, Bombay mint, KM495, Prid-35, S&W-6.21. Reeded edge. Flashy and entrancing, this is one of only two dates for the denomination with the VICTORIA EMPRESS legends, and as such, proves quite difficult for most collectors to acquire. Mild chatter in the mirrors likely precludes a finer designation, but the addition of coppery tone throughout the outer registers adds to the overall attractive nature of this restrike.
