Description

CANADA. 25 Cents, 1902-H. Birmingham (Heaton) Mint. Edward VII. PCGS SPECIMEN-68.
KM-11. A resounding and fully remarkable example from Edward's initial year of coinage, this stunning minor with a specimen finish yields about as much technical magnificence as minting manufacture of the time would allow. The surfaces are sublime and verging upon perfection, with great brilliance and crispness. The coloring is steely gray and completely without tone, and yields the idea that this EXTREMELY RARE and eminently desirable piece departed from the mint only yesterday. Tied with just two others for the top spot in the PCGS census
Ex: George Hans Cook Collection.

Estimate: $47000
