Great Britain
George IV gold Proof 2 Pounds 1826 PR64 Deep Cameo PCGS, KM701, S-3799, W&R-228. Astoundingly reflective and marked by a superb cameo contrast, George's sharply-rendered visage turning nearly white at an angle, lending an unmistakable cameo effect against the mirrored fields, these essentially jet-black when viewed head-on. Connoisseurs of British gold rarities will be familiar with the issue, but rarely is this uncommon type seen with such rich and alluring tone, a deep gold hue embracing the obverse periphery and creating an absolutely stunning display on the nearly pristine reverse.
