INDIA. Rupee Restrike, "1877"-C. Calcutta Mint. Victoria. NGC PROOF-63.
cf. KM-492 (for prototype). Type A/I. Likely an early restrike, this largely untoned example dazzles with a near-liquimetal nature to the lustrous brilliance. Some very light cabinet friction and die rust is observed, but very minimal and does not distract.
Ex: David Fore Collection (Baldwin's 78 - 5/2013) Lot # 613.
Estimate: $800 - $1200
