Great Britain
George III bronzed Proof Pattern Restrike Penny 1797 PR67 Brown NGC, Peck-1142. Nearly as-struck, exhibiting a level of preservation you'd demand from a more modern coin, dressed in smooth chocolate surfaces hosting semi-medallic, crisp motifs. The clear product of a skilled hand with hints of original mint red witnessed to the incuse legends. Misattributed by NGC as Peck-1135, we note a different bust than that recorded in the BMC.
