Cornerstone Collection From Oct 2007 Moore Numismatic Torex Auction "An outstanding example toned with splashes of olive, silver and gold. Both the obverse and reverse exhibit mirror surfaces and the obverse has a strong cameo contrast. Believed to be one of only two in private hands, with a third in British Museum. This example from the J.B. Caldecott specimen set, sold June 11-13, 1912 by Sotheby & Co. London, as part of lot #392. The lot was purchased by Baldwin and Son for Virgil Brand and remained in the Brand family until 1958 when it was sold to Spink & Sons. Spink's broke up the set and placed four pieces individually. In April, 1977 Spink purchased back the Ten Cents piece and again offered it for sale. MOORE's purchased the coin in June of 1977 from Spink's at the Convention of International Numismatics (C.O.I.N.) and brought the coin to Canada for the first time. The coin has remained in the Gruyich Collection for the past 30 years." It was purchased by the Cornerstone Collection until it was again offered in 2019.
