Franz Joseph gold Proof 100 Corona 1908 PR62 NGC, Kremnitz mint, KM2812, Fr-514. A memorable example of this commemorative reign issue that presents a female figure seated amongst clouds, holding a shield and laureate crown. With surfaces that are drenched in lemon-toned flash and design illustrations that are stunningly produced, all atop a planchet that retains a glossy appearance. As is typical for the issue, the immense expanses have been lightly handled, with evidence of minor ticks and wisps located across both sides, but the overall impressiveness of this offering remains desirable at every turn. In reviewing past auction records, the demand for this singular issue has only increased, and the SCWC has completely undervalued its worth at all levels, leading us to believe that this sublime selection should bring a considerable premium as such.
Estimate: 10000-15000 USD
