Victoria Proof Crown 1893 PR67 PCGS, Royal mint, KM783, S-3937. LVI edge. Beautifully toned and exhibiting surfaces in a nearly unbelievable state of preservation. This spectacular piece is currently tied with three other pieces at PCGS and NGC in numerical grade and exceeded by none (a single PR67 Cameo is in the PCGS census). The reflective fields flash from beneath somewhat streaked tone, predominately argent-gray with ample highlights of red-green iridescence. The portraits of both Victoria and St. George are remarkable in their level of detail while the fields are essentially pristine; any signs of handling that may be present are blended into the tone. This is a fabulous specimen and should appeal both to the collector of Proof Crowns of the world as well as those collectors that are currently working to assemble an exceptional 1893 Proof Set.
