Great Britain
Victoria gold Proof 1/2 Sovereign 1887 PR66 Ultra Cameo NGC, KM766, S-3869, W&R-362. A thoroughly outstanding representative of this scarce Proof, entirely meriting of its gem ultra cameo status--the fields appearing nearly jet-black from all angles with a pronounced silhouette matte frost atop the devices. Ranking very near the peak of certified specimens, we note that only two PR67's have been certified to-date.
Ex. Murdoch Collection (Sotheby's April 1903, Lot 495 [part])
