GREAT BRITAIN. Crown, 1826-SEPTIMO. George IV (1820-30). NGC PROOF-63.
S-3806; KM-699. Diminutive mintage (150 pieces) and an overwhelming collector demand, combine to form the perfect storm of desirability. Overcast color tone with lilac and periwinkle sheen that leaps from the obverse fields. Razor sharp strike (as one would expect on a British proof-only issue), along with absolutely flawless rims. The hair detail and high relief portraiture produce what is undeniably one of the most beautiful coins ever struck. The specimen offered here ranks up there as one of the nicest extant. NGC PROOF-63.
Estimate: $8000.00- $10000.00
