Victoria gold Half Sovereign 1849, KM735.1, S-3859, MS63 PCGS. An impressive ring of original tone encircles the outer devices with several ticks on Victoria's chin as well as a small streak above her head where toning was obstructed that appear to account for the grade. Much finer than is typically encountered and an obvious former cabinet-mate with several other examples in this sale. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $160 in VF, $550 in EF, $750 in UNC.
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
