George IV gold Proof Sovereign 1826 PR64 Deep Cameo PCGS, KM696, S-3801, W&R-237 (R2). Reeded edge. A wondrous offering replete with hard mirror fields and sensationally frosted features that combine to yield a full cameo contrast, easily discernible from any angle of inspection. It is no exaggeration to say that Wyon's skillful engraving is visible in its fullest splendor in this Proof format, every curl on George's "bare head" portrait coated in rich golden texture and expressed in the highest relief. The visual appeal of this choice example speaks for itself, and we do not doubt that bidders fortunate enough to experience this coin in hand will feel similarly.
