British India. Bengal Presidency copper Proof Pattern 1/2 Pie 1809 PR64 Brown PCGS, KM-Pn22, Prid-395. A very rare pattern, particularly to locate so near gem--no examples having achieved that coveted designation to-date at PCGS. Wonderfully mahogany red in color, some marks on the holder not to be confused with imperfections on the coin, which itself boasts clean surfaces and full originality. From the Hamilton Collection of British India Coins
