Victoria gold Proof 2 Pounds 1887 PR65 Ultra Cameo NGC, Royal mint, KM768, S-3865. A glorious piece; of the original 747 produced, only 9 have been certified as PR65, with just 5 at PR66 and none higher. This glossy example displays the coveted Ultra Cameo designation to its full splendor, endless mirror fields showing none but the lightest die polish lines, the devices overlaid with a rich coverage of frost. A comparative example graded PR66 Deep Cameo sold at our sale 3051, January 2017, realizing $18,800; although one point lower, we fully anticipate this stunning specimen to elicit similar bidder excitement.
