Carl XV Adolf Proof 4 Riksdaler Riksmynt 1871-ST PR66 Cameo NGC, Stockholm mint, KM726. Beautifully designed and boldly executed, with smokey surfaces that are accented by moments of russet color, and satin-dressed illustrations that soar above the low-lying mirrors. This singular issue asserts a business-strike mintage of a mere 260,000 pieces, and it is likely to follow that any examples struck in Proof are extremely limited. Additionally, this exceptional Gem conveys a combination of superb technical preciseness and handsome cabinet patination that is often desired, likely to make it a welcome addition to even the most specialized collections of 19th century world crowns.
Estimate: 6000-8000 USD
