This is an authentic 1901 Canadian Large Cent featuring the "Mature Head" effigy of Queen Victoria. Sourced from a former dealer's estate, this coin marks the final year of Victoria's historic reign. This "Large Cent" format is significantly larger than modern pennies, measuring approximately 25.4mm.
DETAILS:
Composition: Bronze (95% Copper, 4% Tin, 1% Zinc).
Design: Crowned portrait of Queen Victoria (Obverse) / Maple leaf wreath (Reverse).
Origin: From a long-term, organized estate collection.
CONDITION NOTES: This coin is in circulated condition with a beautiful, deep-aged patina. It shows surprisingly light wear for a 125-year-old coin, with strong details remaining in the Queen's crown and hair.
To maintain the integrity of the century-old patina, I have kept the coin in its original collector flip as found in the estate. I am not a professional grader, so please utilize the high-resolution photos to assess the surface and detail for yourself.
SELLER NOTES Please examine all photos carefully to ensure this piece meets your standards. Note that color variance and the intensity of the patina may appear differently across various screens and mobile devices.
