1839 farthing with proof-style rim

Recommended Posts

Hi all !

Anyone know what to make of this 1839 farthing ? With a very high rim like you see on the bronzed proof. The edge has 4 very fine lines scored onto it. 

I would have thought this was an impaired copper proof except for the die clash under Victoria's hair. Does anyone else have a currency 1839 with a proof-style rim ?
