GREAT INVESTMENT AND HISTORICAL ITEM - A BEAUTIFUL QUEEN VICTORIA LARGE CENT! AN OLD 1859 LARGE CENT! RARE OLD LOW MINTAGE COINS ARE RISING IN VALUE! Photo of coin is the actual one that is up for auction.I am not a coin expert so inspect the photos and access the condition. Photos are untouched no enhancement or corrections. Sealed in plasticThe young head Victorian coins, struck in 1858 and 1859 prior to Confederation, are British Colonial issues under the Province of Canada. The denomination of a cent is equal to the British 1/2 penny, but the government had them struck to the weight standard of 100 coins to the pound rather than the the British standard of 80 coins to the pound of bronze. This made the coins unpopular and poorly accepted by the public.This type was designed by Leonard C. Wyon and was struck from an alloy containing 95% copper, 4% tin and 1% zinc. The standard weight was 4.54 grams with a diameter of 25.4 mm (1 inch). Unlike the silver coins of this series, the large cents were struck with medal alignment. Shipping $2.25 to US lower 48 states and $3.15 to Canada. Ships within 24 hours of paypal payment.1OO% GUARANTEE WITH MONEY BACK see details below
