Victoria Proof 1/2 Crown 1853 PR64 Cameo NGC, Royal mint, KM740, S-3888. Only proof halfcrowns were minted in 1853, and while exact mintage figures are unknown, the scarcity of this type in the market suggests that it was quite minuscule. One of only three 1853 halfcrowns that NGC deemed worthy of the "cameo" designation. Between NGC and PCGS, only 14 1853 halfcrowns have been certified, with this piece certainly among the finest of those. Bright and reflective surfaces with minimal hairlines and just one dark toning spot before the profile of Victoria. An overall very attractive coin.From The Law Collection
Estimate: 6000-8000 USD
