Crisp strike with a light blue tone over practically flawless surfaces. PCGS graded Proof 62. Estimated Value $4,500 - 5,000
* 'The Gothic' Crown of 1847 (a similar version appeared in 1853) is considered to be one of the most attractive silver coins in the British numismatic series, and high grade specimens have always been in great demand. The design was never intended for circulation but was produced to show the best of the engraver's art. The obverse was designed by the celebrated coinage artist William Wyon, and the reverse was by Mr William Dyce RA.
It is believed that a relatively small number of these beautiful silver Crown pieces were produced in 1847 to gauge public acceptance of a design which would feature on the new denomination florin (or two-shilling coin) intended for circulation in the following year.

Mint state with much original mint red, especially on the reverse. An unusually superb example of this exceptionally rare date from the popular Victorian copper Penny series. PCGS graded MS-64 Red & Brown. Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,000
*Peck pointed out that the copper Victoria young head issue is notable for the number of coins bearing altered dates struck from overcut dies of a previous year. This expedient, he says, was simply a matter of economy, as it enabled the full life of a lightly worn die to be utilized instead of scrapping it at the end of the year for which it was dated. The alteration on 1860, the die of which was made by overcutting one of 1859.
Very few copper pennies dated 1860 were made, and few have survived in mint state. In late 1860 the whole copper coinage was replaced by smaller bronze coins, and the 1860 bronze penny is relatively common.
