3) 3 Pence - PR67 Cameo, KM25.2
4) 6 Pence - PR66 Cameo, KM26.2

7) 1/2 Crown - PR66 Cameo, KM29.2

KM-PS10. Mintage: 10. One of the lowest mintage and most challenging of New Zealand's Proof sets, with strikingly few auction occurrences in the last several years. Missing from the Pittman Collection and left unpriced in the Standard Catalog of World Coins, this is the first such set we have offered in over eight years. It is likely among the finest certified as well--the 1/2 Crown and 3 Pence rank as the highest-graded at NGC, with not a single coin herein certified below Gem Proof Cameo. Equally impressive is the inclusion of two Ultra Cameo Proofs--a designation so often lacking in this series and indeed missing from all the other examples we have been able to locate--owing to most specimens displaying an even mirroring and weak, if any, device frosting.
