Saudi Arabia
Abd al-Aziz bin Sa'ud Proof Riyal AH 1354 (1935) PR67 NGC, KM18. A remarkably rare and decidedly difficult issue in Proof despite its somewhat high recorded mintage--a total of just 7 examples being awarded the designation across NGC and PCGS combined to-date, of which just one other piece has achieved this peak grade. Bordering on technical perfection, the surfaces appear blast white and intensively mirrored, revealing hardly the least imperfection or haziness. For comparison, we note that the sole other PR67-certified representative brought the equivalent of $4732 when in last came to auction at DNW in 2015.
