George III silver Proof Farthing 1806/5 PR65 PCGS, S-6622 (silver). An exceptionally scarce off-metal silver Proof, with no comparable examples evident at auction for the past two decades. Clearly the beauty and significant rarity of this piece was respected by its previous owners, as it has been minimally handled and lovingly preserved with gorgeous mottled charcoal gold tone. A must-have for any top tier collection of Irish material.
