India
British India. Victoria gold Proof Restrike Mohur 1879-(b) PR66 NGC, Bombay mint, KM496, Prid-16, S&W-6.7. Royal Mint Style. Type B obverse with only the right stroke visible in the "v" on the ground-line of the bust. A sublimely reflective gem restrike, expressing a covetable degree of technical quality owing to great care in preservation throughout many decades. Mirrorlike splendor is unveiled across the fields at every turn, with almost no handling observable across the expanses and devices alike. Very scarce in this lofty state of preservation and an accordingly fleeting opportunity.
