Cape of Good Hope. British Colony - Victoria bronze Proof Penny 1889 PR62 Red and Brown NGC, Brussels mint, KMX-1 (prev. KM-Pn1), Hern-C8. A visually satisfying example of this elusive type expressing tones of cabernet over the obverse side, the reverse a piercing fiery red touched with gentle shades of blue. Struck in a very low mintage, and a prize for the rarity-seeking South African collector thus.
