Great Britain
George IV lead Uniface Reverse Die Trial Crown 1822 MS63 NGC, cf. KM680.1 and S-3805 (for type), cf. ESC-2324 (R7; Unique, but with streamer of hair behind helmet), L&S-3 (same). 37mm. By Benedetto Pistrucci. A presumably unique and seemingly unpublished die trial, differing from the unique specimen recorded by Bull and Linecar and Stone, in that it lacks the long streamer of hair extending from St. George's helmet. Interestingly missing from Pistrucci's own collection as such, and of great interest to the connoisseur of the British series.
Ex. Heritage Auction #3032 (April 2014, Lot 32017); Heritage Auction #3010 (August 2010, Lot 21128)
