Great Britain
George II 4-Piece NGC-Certified Proof Set 1746,
1) 6 Pence - PR64 NGC, KM582.2, S-3711
2) Shilling - PR64 NGC, KM583.3, S-3704
3) 1/2 Crown - PR64 NGC, KM584.2, S-3696
4) Crown - PR63 NGC, KM585.2, S-3690

Royal mint. Mintage: 100 sets. A remarkable example of this first collector proof set of Great Britain, each coin closely matching the next in terms of appearance, suggesting a high likelihood that the set has been intact for the entirety of its nearly 300 years of existence. Deeply toned, each piece showcases an impressive array of multicolored iridescence that explodes upon inspection under a light. With a loupe, few notable imperfections are seen. Considering the mintage, this near-Gem group has to be among the finest preserved. A tremendous showpiece for the collector of British presentation issues.
