British India. Victoria gold Proof Restrike Mohur 1870-(c) PR63+ NGC, Calcutta mint, KM480, Prid-11, S&W-4.9. Young bust type with V on the ground line of bust. Reeded edge. Designed by the Victorian-era engraver, L.C. Wyon. The only example of this scarce specimen at this coveted grade designation with only two ranking finer. Proof canary-gold surfaces enliven a crisp strike that is held back only by minor fissuring to the obverse fields.
