George V gold Proof 5 Pounds 1911 PR65 Cameo NGC, KM822, S-3994, W&R-414. Mintage: 2,812. Proof issue struck for the coronation of George V. 2,812 pieces of this large size denomination were produced for inclusion in George V's coronation Proof set, with no business strikes being produced (the final currency 5 Pounds having been struck in 1902 under Edward VII); accordingly, the 5 Pounds collector can only hope to obtain an example in Proof. Blessed with champagne golden reflectivity across watery surfaces that lack any noteworthy flaws, the medallic features of the piece at hand provide instant viewing enjoyment, heightened by the presence of a clear cameo contrast. Minute wisps limit the certification from further heights, blending with easily discernible die polish lines in the fields.
