Great Britain
Victoria gold 5 Pounds 1887 MS66+ NGC, KM769, S-3864. Jubilee issue. A laudable conditional survivor, which by its appearance may as well have been struck yesterday. Cascading cartwheel luster dominates the open expanses upon rotation and inspection, highlighting fields and devices absent of all but the absolute smallest traces of contact, the surfaces richly decorated in delicate flow lines resulting from the coin's striking in 1887, though essentially nothing to deter the eye. An astounding example sure to draw widespread collector attention, as no other certified specimen exceeds the preservation of this immaculate piece.
