| Lot description: Canada Newfoundland. Victoria Specimen Pattern Cent 1865 SP65 Brown PCGS, London mint, KM-Pn7, NF-7. Coin alignment, specimen strike. A captivating design featuring Queen Victoria graces the obverse, paired with a reverse design that mirrors the adopted look for the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick cents, save for slight differences in the wreath's foliage. This type is exceedingly rare, with only a small handful of specimens believed to be in private collections, noting the present selection only the third we have offered in ten years. This piece boasts a glassy obverse with olive and azure iridescence, enhancing its allure. The reverse carries die polish lines to fields that enhance the distinction between the surfaces and raised designs at the tilt of the wrist. Only three are certified at PCGS, rendering this a momentous opportunity for the discerning collector of rare Newfoundland Patterns. Ex.
