Description
Add a touch of 90s brilliance to your collection with this 1993 Proof-Like (PL) Canadian Penny. Following the commemorative year of 1992, the 1993 cent returned to the classic single-date format, but maintained the high-quality 12-sided shape and the “Crowned” portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
This PL specimen is a standout for its rich copper color and sharp, reflective surfaces, offering a level of preservation that makes it a true collector’s piece.
Key Highlights:
-
Brilliant Proof-Like Finish: Specially struck for collectors with mirror-like fields and a crisp, satin-finish relief.
-
The “Crowned Queen” Effigy: Features the beautiful Dora de Pédery-Hunt portrait, capturing fine details in the Diadem and jewelry.
-
Dodecagonal Rim: Boasts the iconic 12-sided shape, a favorite among Canadian small cent enthusiasts for its unique aesthetic.
-
High Copper Content: One of the final years before the Mint moved toward multi-ply plated steel compositions, preserving that classic heavy copper feel.
