Farouk gold Proof "Royal Wedding" 500 Piastres AH 1357 (1938) PR67 NGC, London mint, KM373, Fr-110. Commemorating the royal wedding of King Farouk to Queen Farida. An abundantly flashy offering of this popular gold Proof commemorative issue that exhibits superb quality for the type and commensurate certification. Examination unveils surfaces awash with copper-gold reflectivity, the details precise and sharp across every point, and the grade seemingly only bound by the most minute hairline wisps that cross the fields upon angled inspection. Of all examples certified by NGC to date, only a single representative certifies finer by the addition of a "plus" and "star" designation.
