Edward VII gold Matte Proof 5 Pounds 1902 PR64 PCGS, KM807, S-3966, W&R-404. Exceptionally rare at this grade level! The sandblasting effect of this issue often creates swirling hairlines which always affects its grade, and yet here we see a piece with warm orange tone and incredibly clean fields. To put the significance of this offering into perspective, NGC and PCGS have graded a total of just 14 1902 Proof 5 Pounds (including this specimen) at PR64 level or higher. Compare that with, say, the 1937 5 Pounds - of which NGC and PCGS have certified 456 examples total at PR64 or above. One of the most difficult 5 Pound issues to find in higher grades, and absolutely certain to elicit significant attention from collectors of this popular denomination.
