India
British India. Victoria gold Proof Restrike 5 Rupees 1870-CM PR65+ Cameo NGC, Calcutta mint, KM474, Prid-40, S&W-4.23. Young bust with C.M. initials on neck. Remarkably flashy and heavily mirrored in the fields, this incredible gem very much straddles the line of tying the finest certified for the type at NGC, an honor held by just a single PR66 Cameo. Awarded a plus for its admirable quality, we have not handled a conditionally comparable example.
From the Storck Collection
