Great Britain
George V gold Proof 5 Pounds 1911 PR66 NGC, KM822, S-3994, W&R-414. Mintage: 2,812. A spectacular gem of a coin, which for all practical purposes appears virtually flawless in hand. George's precisely produced portrait is set within fluid, copper-gold fields, these bearing almost no traces of handling, though are ranked with the finest of die polish lines that heighten the impression of what can only be described as visual near-perfection. Only the faintest speckling of amber tone is noted throughout, while the utterly serene fields act as an astounding backdrop for the devices, razor-sharp in appearance and preserved as struck. Simply superb and near the peak of attainable quality for the type!
