| Beschrijving voorzijde | Veiled and crowned three-quarter effigy of Queen Victoria facing left, wearing the small crown, veil, and elaborately decorated robes with jewelled regalia visible at the truncation. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detailing on the lace veil and drapery. A beaded inner border separates the central effigy from the surrounding legend. The circular legend reads VICTORIA BY THE GRACE OF GOD QUEEN OF GREAT BRITAIN EMP OF INDIA, with decorative floral and foliate ornaments between words. Notably, the legend appears partially inverted at the base, a characteristic error associated with this Chinese-made replica issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Not a British coin in any official sense. These copper-nickel pieces were produced in China, almost certainly in the late Qing or early Republican period, as counterfeits targeting the substantial trade in British crowns circulating through Chinese treaty ports. The 1887 Jubilee crown was a particularly common target — widely recognized, heavily traded, and familiar enough to pass. Copper-nickel was the tell; the genuine article is silver.
