<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Meat man, post: 8493439, member: 135271&quot;]This came in today. <i>Kind</i> of the British Empire:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1503134[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces22498.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces22498.html" rel="nofollow">Numista</a> has this to say:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;This was the first official (government-approved) coin of Nova Scotia.&nbsp; The reverse design, a sprig of mayflower, is now the provincial flower and is considered one of the most beautiful coins made for North America.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I have to say I agree! If there is a coin with a more beautifully done portrait of Victoria, I have yet to see it; and the reverse design is also nicely balanced and wonderfully executed. The low-ish mintage adds appeal as well. A winner all around![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
