Victoria gold Proof 1/2 Sovereign 1839 PR65 PCGS, KM735.1, S-3859. A captivating Gem, of supreme visual appeal! Housed in an old green label PCGS holder, were it certified today it would undoubtedly receive recognition for its superbly frosted portrait of the young Victoria, essentially unbroken even at the highest points. The fields, however, are perhaps more striking, remaining reflective immediately surrounding Victoria's portrait and quickly transforming into a matte aged-gold ring at the peripheries. The cataloger has never seen anything quite like it. Bold in its strike and unmatched in its eye appeal, this coin is aesthetically delightful and merits close examination for a full appreciation of its absolute beauty.
