George IV Crown 1821 MS64 NGC, KM680.1, S-3805. SECUNDO edge. An exquisite example of George IV's first Crown, almost prooflike in its appearance resulting from an excellent standard of production coupled with careful handling during the 200 years following its striking. The King's portrait shows a lighter coverage of frost delineating it from the brighter, reflective fields behind, a similar effect gracing the portrait of St. George and dragon on the reverse; whilst tone on silver can so often enhance the visual appeal of a coin, this piece boasts blast-white luster and a mint fresh planchet which provides an equally stunning aesthetic effect. A truly premium Crown, for the discerning.
