† AFRICA. East AFRICA. East Africa and Uganda Protectorates, Edward VII, Cupro-nickel 5-Cents, 1907 (KM A11). Good extremely fine, toned.
KM has these coin listed in two places, both in the circulating coin section as "rare" and then in the pattern section as "PN-8". Clearly there is some confusion about the status of this coin.This current example is toned but has all the appearance of a matte proof under the tone, it is difficult to be certain either way.
Part of the Arielle Collection Of British Colonial Coins.
Estimate: £1000-1500
