George III Proof Bank Dollar of 5 Shillings 1804 PR66 NGC, Soho mint, KM-Tn1, S-3768, ESC-149. An ever-popular type very seldom encountered in proof grades--due largely to the fact that they were overstruck on Spanish 8 Reales--this stunning proof issue, produced in order to replace the widely counterfeited counterstamped 8 Reales, leaves little to be desired from the potential buyer: glorious, bright, reflective fields displaying russet hues set against mottled graphite surfaces; currently tied as the finest certified example from NGC; and remarkably lacking in evidence of being overstruck on another issue. Worthy of a premium bid.
