Victoria Proof Shilling 1853 PR65 NGC, KM734.1, S-3904, ESC-1301 (R2). Young Head, reeded edge. An exceptional example struck early in Victoria's reign, with wholly original surfaces that feature dazzling, bluish-gray patina and golden highlights. The design elements are especially crisp, with all details fully struck and silvery tone that clings to the peripheries. Flashy, bold, and incredibly scarce in this deluxe state of preservation. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $29 in VF, $110 in EF, $275 in UNC.
Estimate: 2500-3000 USD
