Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach. Wilhelm Ernst gold Proof 20 Mark 1901-A PR66 Ultra Cameo NGC, Berlin mint, KM216, Jaeger-283. One-year type. The profile portrait of Wilhelm Ernst sits in profound contrast to the undisturbed fields and creates a dramatic appearance that immediately captures the viewer's eye. A rare issue in all formats, but even more so as a proof, with all examples, no matter the grade, being highly coveted by collectors. The present example, the finest graded by either NGC or PCGS, and quite possibly the finest extant, should only add further excitement for the specialist. A pinnacle-piece for the type!Ex.
