Victoria Proof Gothic Crown 1847 PR62 NGC, Royal mint, KM744, S-3883. "UNDECIMO" edge. Most attractive in this Proof quality, this particular specimen features steel-gray color that darkens around the peripheries, but upon rotation, that darkness illuminates into a warm, golden glow, setting the Gothic portrait of Victoria alight in champagne brilliance. Very few marks are noted on this piece; however, one minor gouge to the left of the Queen's bust blends well into the surrounding tone, but most-likely accounts for the near-Choice classification. A highly-popular issue with a large collector base, this well-preserved offering should attract much attention.
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
