Title: Hong Kong. British Colony. Victoria. 1875-H 10¢. Heaton Mint. KM-6.3. Specimen-67 NGC.
Description: A remarkable beauty in all regards. The satiny and largely reflective surfaces are awash with soft smoky rose and sky-blue iridescence that really spring to life in a bright light source. The strike is bold throughout, with even the tiniest details present and accounted for. Double-tailed Q in QUEEN on the obverse. The KM reference lists Proofs for the date, but not Specimen coinage – our gut says they are one and the same creature. As beautiful as it sounds and then some perhaps, and certainly a coin worthy of the finest cabinet.
