William IV gold Proof £2 1831, S-3828, KM718, WR-258 (R3, very rare), plain edge, PR65 Ultra Cameo NGC, a splendidly preserved specimen of exceptional beauty, fully struck from the proof dies, almost flawless surfaces showing deeply mirrored fields with classic orange-peel texture, the portrait and royal shield frosted, with exceptionally high rims of razor-blade sharpness, and best of all a truly elegant eye-appeal given by the coin's rich reddish gold toning. Wow! Just about the best one this cataloguer has seen in almost 40 years. An original coin of great beauty!

Estimate: 14000-17000 USD
