British India. "Lord & Lady Curzon - Viceroy of India" gold Proof Presentation Medal 1899 PR63 Ultra Cameo NGC, BHM-3643, Eimer-1835, Pudd-899.1 (RRR). 51mm. 102.8gm. By Allen Wyon. Obv. Conjoined busts of George Nathaniel Curzon with Mary Curzon left; titles around / Rev. Curzon coat of arms with female supporters; PRESENTED • BY • HIS • EXCELLENCY • THE • GOVERNOR • GENERAL. A handsomely preserved medal with dramatic cameo contrast between the high-relief motifs and the fields. Light hairlines define the grade, but essentially no marks that are worthy of note--a real rarity for the medal this size in such a soft metal. Undoubtedly extremely rare in gold and given its multi-country theme, a medal we could imagine fitting perfectly into a large number of collections.
Ex. Lawrence Adams Collection (CNG Triton XIX, January 2016, Lot 2781)
