Dark toning covers the surface of this 1923 penny, with a select area of turquoise found on the lower left of the obverse face. Original mint lustre of this specimen coin creates a satiny background for the relief images. Intricate details can be found throughout the elaborate monarch portrait of King George V, while the reverse two maple leaves design showcases the well struck features. One other specimen also graded SP-66 by PCGS, and no other piece graded finer (5/11). An absolutely fantastic piece, and a must have for any collector.
