Great Britain
George VI gold Proof 5 Pounds 1937 PR65+ Deep Cameo PCGS KM861, S-4074, W&R-435. Mintage: 5,500. Of sublime quality for this sought-after 5 Pounds issue of George VI, the obverse fields serving as a sea of mirrorlike reflectivity, handled with sufficient care that even the minute die polish lines laid over these fields take visual precedent over any signs of handling. Only isolated and insignificant reverse wisps limit the grade from even further heights, while the devices glow against the backdrop of nearly jet black fields, as viewed head-on. An offering worthy of an elite cabinet of British conditional rarities.
