British Colony. Victoria Dollar 1866 MS61 NGC, Hong Kong mint, KM10, Prid-1, Mars-C41. A bewitching inaugural specimen of this fleeting two-year issue that saw extensive use in circulation. A perennial favorite of British and Chinese collectors alike, especially when encountered in Mint State designations, and only capped a gentle dispersal of handling friction. Despite this, the advanced aesthetic caliber is undeniable, blanketed in a pervasive tangerine tone punctuated by ample mint flash and scattered peripheral iridescence that will certainly elevate the offering at hand in the eyes of potential bidders.
