Lot description: Australia George VI Proof Restrike Penny 1943-I PR63 Red and Brown PCGS, Bombay mint, KM36. Pridmore states that "The earliest of this restrike series appears to have been carried out for Australian collectors, who sought specimens of the Bombay-minted Australian bronze pence and halfpence." Pridmore further stated that many of the Bombay Mint restrikes featured a "...lacquered finish, particularly the base metal coins." This present magenta and salmon colored example is true to Pridmore's excerpt, featuring a glossy, lacquer-like appearance. Rare and highly coveted in this format. https://coins.ha.com/itm/australia/australia-george-vi-proof-restrike-penny-1943-i-pr63-red-and-brown-pcgs-/a/3115-32361.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchives-WorldCoins-3115-05082024 HID02906262019 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved |
