As for the coin itself, its proof status is undeniable, with deep mirrored fields and a delicately frosted central design; sharp, squared-off rims further confirm the designation. Multicolored cabinet tone on the obverse further benefits the already outstanding the eye-appeal, with a lintmark on Wilhelmina's cheek, as well as extending from the A in NEDERLANDEN on the reverse, serving a future pedigree markers. All told, a wonderful opportunity for the specialist.
