William IV gold Proof 2 Pounds 1831 PR63 Ultra Cameo NGC, Royal mint, KM718, S-3828, WR-258 (R3). "Ultra Cameo" is a term which, to the cataloguer, has never been so well deserved as to this gorgeous specimen. The high-quality execution of the strike has left a startlingly prominent frosted portrait of William IV standing out powerfully from the mirrored field, essentially pristine save from the lightest hairlines, and a similarly remarkable effect to the fine draped shield on the reverse. An exceptional level of preservation for a most desirable coin, and one which certainly soars above the norm for this type. Worthy of a strong bid.
