Franz Joseph I gold Proof 100 Korona 1907-KB PR64 NGC, Kremnitz mint, KM490, Fr-256. Exceptional matte frost, deep orange colored and largely undisturbed, adorns the centers on this popular coronation commemorative with reflective outer legends that display their customary prooflike gleam. Absolutely among the finest examples we have observed of this type and as one of the most coveted 20th century gold type, of extreme importance to the collector that demands elite quality. Formerly owned by world-renowned financier John Pierpont (J.P.) Morgan and accompanied by a printed envelope from his London residence that has written on the front, in what appears to be his hand, "Austrian Jubilee coin". All this should only add to this magnificent coin's allure.Ex. J.P. Morgan
