This specimen was lot 33435 in Heritage sale 3082 (New York, January 2020), where it sold for $660. The catalog description[1] noted, "Canada: Victoria "22 Leaves" 10 Cents 1891 MS63 PCGS, London mint. 22 leaves variety. Subdued in color and full in strike, the reverse revealing a charming bull's-eye iridescence that is only fully appreciable in hand." The SCWC notes both the "21 leaves" and the "22 leaves" variety, referring to the leaves of the wreath on the reverse, but prices them the same. The 1891 is a better date but not rare.
Recorded mintage: 800,000.
Specification: 2.32 g, 0.925 fine silver, .069 troy oz ASW, reeded edge, 18.0 mm diameter.
Catalog reference: KM 3.
