KM-450.3; S&W-1.40; Prid-35. "F" raised on truncation. A pleasing example of the ever popular William Rupee in beautiful proof restrike format, this example glimmers and glows with a soft shimmering luster and strong details on the surface. Far less hairlined than one might expect given the usual condition on these proof Rupees, this example does display some characteristic die rust confirming its status as a proof restrike. A pleasant piece that is perfect for the specialist in the series seeking to expand their holdings.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
