George IV gold Proof Sovereign 1821 PR62 PCGS, KM682, S-3800, W&R-231 (R3). A remarkable offering, the highest denomination issued within the extremely elusive and mysterious 1821 Coronation Proof set; this 6-piece set is of such rarity that the cataloger can only find note of one being sold within the last 14 years, at Heritage's 2004 New York sale. Deeply reflective and a rich gold in color, this Sovereign exhibits every detail of Pistrucci's masterful depiction of the new King as sharply as when first struck; only minor contact marks in the field restrict this piece from a higher certified grade. An extreme rarity, visually breathtaking and certainly fit for a King! An example certified one point lower, PR61 Cameo NGC, sold in our August 2015 ANA sale, realizing $9,987.50.
