I was fortunate to pick up another beautiful British coin. This time it is a toned 1893 Six Pence which has been graded "Proof 65+" by NGC. It has deep blue, purple and gold toning over its silver surfaces.

With the toning, it's hard to get a good photo of the shimmering proof surfaces, but I did my best to get one. Unfortunately, the NGC holder has quite a few marks on it, so I may send this in for a reholder sometime in the future.

Victoria's "veiled head" coins are my favorite British coin design, so I am happy to have been able to add this one to my collection.

Beautiful! There are some products that claim to remove scratches from holders, don't know if they work.

Nice coin. You should try some of that plastic polish stuff.

Paul, that's a real beauty! You should get it re-holdered.
