Great Britain
Edward VII gold Matte Proof 2 Pounds 1902 PR65 NGC, KM806, S-3968. Currently the second highest certification awarded by either NGC or PCGS, this simply immaculate Matte Proof 2 Pounds makes it plain to see what drove the Royal Mint's decision to sandblast the dies for Edward VII's coronation Proof set. With the velveteen finish leaving little room for signs of handling or contact to go unnoticed, virtually none of which can be seen here, it is hard to imagine a more pleasing specimen.
