| Aanvullende informatie |
Nova Scotia's copper coinage of 1843 was authorized under colonial legislation passed the previous year, making the province one of the first British North American colonies to issue coins bearing a regnant portrait of Victoria rather than a purely symbolic or generic design. The issue was struck at Boulton & Watt's Soho Mint successor facility in Birmingham, by then operating under the Heaton partnership.
The Breton 874 attribution places this squarely in the mainstream of the series, though die alignment and edge quality vary enough across surviving examples to suggest more than one working pair was used in production.
