William IV Proof Crown 1831 PR62+ Cameo PCGS, Royal mint, KM715, S-3833. ESC-2462 (R2), L&S-1 (Listed as a pattern). Plain Edge / "W.W." Incuse / Coin Alignment. An alluring representative of William IV's first crown (the only other date - 1834 - was produced in extremely limited qualities; see example later in this sale), the variety seen here, often associated with the proof set of the year that is thought to have had 100 made. The surfaces of this lovely coin have retained excellent reflectivity, with delicate purple tone in the open fields and gold and blue-green color that hugs much of the subtly frosted design. No marks catch the eye, although faint grade-defining hairlines in the fields can be seen under close inspection. Altogether, an immensely collectible crown, and in as original state as the present, a coin that is certain to attract serious bidder attention.
