Victoria gold Proof 5 Pounds 1887 PR63 Ultra Cameo NGC, KM769, Fr-390, S-3864, W&R-285. With a tiny mintage of 797 pieces, this specimen represents one of the most desirable 5 Pound issues in British numismatics, featuring an elegant Jubilee bust and the classic motif of St. George slaying the dragon. The present offering exhibits enviably Ultra Cameo contrast paired with an exceptionally bold layer of frost over the devices, only a scattering of faint hairlines preventing a higher designation. Impressive and well worthy of a premium bid.
