Great Britain
George V gold Proof 5 Pounds 1911 PR61 NGC, KM822, S-3994. From a mintage of only 2,812 pieces. An impressive example of this Proof-only issue, wisps of marigold around the devices lending a bit of character to the soft glow of the reflective fields. The contrast between the emblematic motifs and glistening recesses is greater than might be expected, only intruded upon by a grouping of handling marks around the obverse portrait that place the piece in line with the assigned grade.
