Great Britain. Queen Victoria. 1875 Obverse Brockage 1/2 Sovereign. [ 0.917 Gold | 3.86g | 19mm ] Third young head, type A3, with incuse impression of Victoria's portrait on the reverse where the shield is usually located. Light traces from a mount resulting in the slightest rim discolourations. Spink 3860d. 

An incredible rarity from the English gold series issued for circulation. Previously NGC Mint Error AU Details. See Platinum Night Sale August 2022; an 1876 Half Sovereign MS Brockage realised $31,200 USD. Ever so infrequently has an opportunity to own something truly spectacular been offered in commerce within New Zealand. 

N.B: Arnold Margolis and Fred Weinberg in their fourth edition of The Error Coin Encyclopedia: "If (a) previously struck coin happens to land squarely on top of a new blank fed to the collar, and the dies strike the two together, the image of the entire surface of that first coin will be impressed into the new blank (which becomes the "second coin"). That second coin will have an incuse (sunken) image from that first coin all across its obverse, while the reverse will have received an essentially normal strike from the reverse die since the first coin effectively covered all of the obverse die, none of the design from the obverse die will be seen on the second coin. This combination is known as a full brockage or a mirror brockage, and is one of the most desirable brockage types sought by error coin collectors."
