Great Britain
Victoria gold Sovereign 1853 MS67 NGC, Royal mint, KM736.1, S-3852C. W.W. raised. Impeccably struck, with a portrait that could not be more bold and a reverse shield motif that soars to full completion. Swirling mint luster easily meanders the flawless fields and other than a few pinpoint specks on the neck of Victoria, a coin that has escaped even trace issues of handling. A small die break that extends from Victoria's eyebrow into her hair acts as a future pedigree identifier, and as a whole, this Gem will be hard to beat.
