British India. Edward VII Proof 1/4 Rupee 1908-(c) PR64 Cameo NGC, Calcutta mint, KM506, Prid-437. Brimming with reflectivity and icy white, this rare Proof demonstrates standout preservation for this scarce issue. Frosted devices produce a welcome contrast against pondlike, lightly handled fields, whose only feature of note aside from their high level of mirroring takes the form of fine, vertical die polish lines.
Ex. David Fore Collection (Baldwin's Auction 78, May 2013, Lot 488)
