William IV Proof Crown 1831 PR63 PCGS, KM715, S-3833, ESC-2462 (R2). Plain edge. W.W. on truncation. William IV's Crowns were only produced in Proof format with none being produced for circulation; the majority appearing for sale were struck for inclusion in the 1831 Coronation Proof set (such as this piece), with a few rarer examples produced in 1834. The present offering must surely be close to obtaining a 'cameo' designation for its frosted portrait, the fields behind reflective under a layer of iridescent rainbow luster; the striking detail is superb and devoid of wear, the quality decidedly premium for the grade. Seldom encountered as pleasing as this, a superb representative of the type.
