CANADA. 50 Cents, 1872-H. Heaton Mint. Victoria. PCGS Genuine--Harshly Cleaned, EF Details.
KM-6. The famous "inverted A/V" variety, in which an inverted "A" was used for the "V" in "VICTORIA". The error was discovered quickly, hence this variety is RARE. Despite the obvious cleaning, the strike details are strong and the surfaces toned a gentle gray throughout. Besides hairlines, very few marks are noted in the fields.
Estimate: $700 - $1000
