Enchanting "Gothic"-Style Pattern Dollar of Victoria
(t) HONG KONG (SAR). Mint Error -- Double Struck in Collar -- Silver Dollar Pattern, 1864. London Mint. Victoria. PCGS Genuine--Repaired, Proof--AU Details.
KM-Pn94; Prid-221. Emanating from a vast series of pattern Dollars, with a good deal of mixing and matching of obverse and reverse dies, this EXCEPTIONALLY RARE type features an enchanting bust of the queen very similar to her famous and highly popular "Gothic"-style coinage. Here, her youthful crowned head displays her hair plaited with a braid descending from her temple, around her ear, and tucked at the nape of her neck. Meanwhile, the reverse displays a double border, one consisting of an oak wreath, and the other composed of a series of floral scrolls, all around the name of the colonial outpost and denomination in Chinese. Some light friction is noted, along with the subtle cleaning, but a great deal of glistening brilliance remains along with some alluring cabinet toning beginning to reemerge. An incredible opportunity for the collector of the Hong Kong series, Victorian issues more specifically, or world crown RARITIES more broadly.

迷人「哥德式」風格維多利亞壹圓銀樣幣
1864年香港壹圓銀樣幣。倫敦造幣廠。錯版幣。
出自一龐大的壹圓樣幣系列，該系列中正反面模具組合多樣。此版存世極為稀少，女王頭像精美絕倫，與其著名的"哥德式"錢幣風格如出一轍：年輕的女王頭戴皇冠，頭髮編織成辮，從太陽穴垂下，繞過耳朵，盤於腦後。幣面反面雙層圓框環繞，內圈為橡樹花環，外圈為花卉捲紋，中央香港一仙。此枚雖有輕微摩擦痕跡和清洗，但依舊光彩照人，並漸漸養出迷人的窯藏包漿，實屬難得。對於香港錢幣、維多利亞時期錢幣或世界珍稀錢幣的藏家而言，這是一次千載難逢的收藏機會。 (t) On September 1, 2019, the United States enacted new tariffs on collector's items of Chinese origin, including bullion and numismatic coins and banknotes.
