GREAT BRITAIN. Florin, 1879. London Mint. Victoria. PCGS Genuine--Altered Surfaces, Proof. Unc Details Gold Shield.
S-3898; KM-746.4. EXCEPTIONALLY RARE as a proof striking, this charming minor doesn't exhibit much in the way of the noted 'altered surfaces,' and instead offers tremendous frosting and mirrored brilliance in the fields, all while displaying hints of golden-russet toning near the peripheries. An exceptional piece no matter the details description.
Ex: Bowers & Merena (9/1988) Lot # 5058.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
