1838 FOURPENCE ( AUNC )

An exceptional 1838 fourpence in almost uncirculated condition from the inaugural year of Victoria's reign. This silver coin displays virtually pristine surfaces with only the most subtle signs of handling, maintaining full original lustre and crisp definition across all design elements. The fourpence remains one of Britain's most elusive denominations, confined to restricted Maundy mintages that render high-grade examples particularly coveted. The AUNC grade confirms museum-calibre preservation and aesthetic appeal. An outstanding acquisition for collectors assembling early Victorian rarities or those seeking premium-quality British coinage with strong numismatic significance and scarcity credentials.
