Victoria gold Sovereign 1865-SYDNEY MS61 NGC, Sydney mint, KM4. A decidedly Mint State survivor from this conditionally challenging series, where the majority of certified examples approach but rarely surpass Mint State designations. Victoria's young portrait is sensitively rendered upon this harvest gold planchet featuring a stronger mint brilliance than the assigned grade might demand, with notable satiny fields throughout marred by light friction and haymarking that limit the piece's technical caliber. A thoroughly entrancing offering.
