George IV gold Proof 2 Pounds 1826 PR64 NGC, Royal mint, KM701, S-3799. Amongst the highest certified of this immensely popular type, in an older NGC holder; were it reholdered, this premium piece would certainly be worthy of a Cameo or Ultra Cameo designation. A glorious and rich gold in color, flashy fields free of all but the lightest hairlines, every detail of the engraving immaculate and overlaid with thick frost. The most recent PR64 we have handled sold in our auction 3051, January 2017, where it realized $23,500, and desire for this gorgeous type has only increased since then; accordingly, we anticipate strong collector interest in this near-Gem Proof.
