Description: Offered is a Canada 1886 One Cent Large Copper Coin featuring Queen Victoria on the obverse and the traditional Maple Leaf reverse. This coin is the Obverse 1 variety, identifiable by the rounded bust and taller, narrow lettering — one of several obverse types used in 1886. Graded Fine (F), it shows moderate wear with clear major details in the Queen’s portrait and crown. The reverse retains visible maple leaves and strong legends, along with an attractive, even copper tone.
Struck in solid copper, the 1886 issue is among the most interesting Victorian large cents, known for its multiple die varieties and strong collector demand.
