British India. William IV gold Proof Restrike 2 Mohurs 1835-(c) PR61 NGC, Calcutta mint, KM452.1, Fr-1592b, Prid-3, S&W-1.4. Reeded edge. A slightly more attainable representative of this contested emission, with light handling in the fields accounting for the designation. Nevertheless definitively struck, with prominent die rust in the margins confirming its "restrike" status. Mild traces of lilac tone have begun to develop around the palm and lion on the reverse, producing a somewhat single appearance for a type that usually comes free of notable patination.
