Victoria Proof 1/2 Crown 1880 PR65 NGC, S-3889, ESC-2757 (R4). Reeded edge. An exceptionally rare Proof of Record, one of just two to appear at auction in the last 20 years. Firmly deserving of its lofty gem level grade, this superb Halfcrown boasts sleek argent surfaces alive with light red-gold luster, almost entirely free of contact marks save for one small scratch to Victoria's cheekbone. Clearly produced with extreme care and lovingly handled since, an uncontested beauty and worthy of the highest tier British collections. From the Lake County Collection
