George VI gold Proof Sovereign 1937 PR65 Cameo PCGS, KM859, S-4076. A fantastic representative from this pre-war Proof set, almost never so well made nor well produced as this. Whereas many examples exhibit solely glossy surfaces and devices (an effect observable here on the reverse), the obverse of this piece carries rich frost to George's portrait, a dual-textured appearance resulting in splendid eye appeal and its receiving a 'cameo' designation. What's more, these pieces hardly ever enter the gem level grade, through improper handling or hairlines over the years; accordingly, we have no doubts that this superlative Sovereign will inspire desire through its technical quality and amazing aesthetic appeal.
