Victoria Proof Florin 1893 PR67+ Deep Cameo PCGS, Royal mint, KM781, S-3939. The single finest graded by PCGS; the next closest is a PR67 with no cameo effect noted, let alone deep cameo. The obverse is bright white with just a hint of toning before the face of Victoria, while the reverse is a multi-hued rainbow, with dark blue along the outer edges turning to red in the central devices. A stunning coin. While proof 1893 florins are not particularly rare, it is hard to imagine one finding a comparable example to this anytime soon.
Estimate: 3000-3500 USD
