Charles X gold Specimen Coronation Medal 1825 SP62 PCGS, Sb-80a, Bienne-284 (AU). 75.14gm. By F. Gayrard. A huge and extremely rare gold medal commemorating the coronation of Charles X of France in 1825. Sharply rendered with high-relief detail to the new King's standing portrait, considerable care taken in the execution of his fine clothing; the reverse is largely plain save for a pleasing and sensitively produced laureate border. Scattered contact marks are the sole detraction to this piece's grade (as one would expect from such a large and hefty gold medal), and in all other regards it remains close to its original production state. An offering which is unlikely to appear again anytime soon.
