Victoria Proof 1/2 Crown 1839 PR66+ Cameo PCGS, KM740, S-3885, ESC-2708. Plain edge. A conditional and aesthetic outlier from this ever-popular type, produced for distribution in Victoria's delayed coronation set, alongside the iconic "Una and the Lion" 5 Pounds. Ample flash resides beneath a cobalt and slate patination, projecting Victoria's precisely rendered bust and crowned arms towards the viewer, resulting in an appropriate and coveted Cameo superlative. Between both grading services, only a single representative ranks technically finer by a mere half-point, and as such is certainly worthy of advanced consideration by the most quality-conscious collector.
