Great Britain
Victoria gold 5 Pounds 1887 MS63 NGC, KM769, S-3864. Choice Mint State, a type heavily used in bank-to-bank transactions due to its large size and as such often found with numerous bagmarks. This piece is no exception, yet clearly survives in above-average state in line with its impressive grade; rich butter-gold in color, surfaces glossy and largely unmarred. Victoria's jubilee portrait is sharply rendered and clearly frosty in contrast to the reflective fields. Strong in its eye appeal and not often encountered in choice.
