Sierra Leone
British Colony. Sierra Leone Company bronzed-copper Proof 50 Cents (1/2 Dollar) 1791 PR64 PCGS, KM5a, FT-3b. A stunning near-Gem Proof representative boasting the most wonderful glossy surfaces laying host champagne, violet, and pilot-light blue patination throughout. Exceedingly well-preserved, as evidenced from the sheer lack of significant handling friction many times witnesses to lion and hands, limited only by grade defining wisps to the fields. A popular and thoroughly scarce Proof issue.
