3) Shilling - PR64, KM761, S-3926

9) Sovereign - PR65 Ultra Cameo, KM767, S-3866B
10) 2 Pounds - PR63 Ultra Cameo, KM768, S-3865
cf. KMPS10, cf. S-PS5. An appealing near-complete Proof set, missing only the 5 Pound piece. 1887 marked Victoria's 50 years on the throne, heralding the introduction of a new portrait to succeed her younger 'bun head' series known as her Jubilee coinage, an intricate design presented superbly on this popular set. Impressive together as a set, but each individual coin attractive within its own right as well. The Crown is toned especially nicely, watery fields permeated by vivid blues and reds, with the 3 Pence coming in a close second in terms of eye appeal, with deep violet and cobalt color throughout. Sure to attract significant attention as an opportunity to acquire superb examples of this Jubilee type without breaking the bank for the 5 Pound piece.
