Nicholas I gold Proof "Bare Head" 100 Perpera 1910 PR63 Ultra Cameo NGC, Vienna mint, KM12, Fr-1, Višcevic-10. Bare head, facing right. With a Proof mintage of only 25 according to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, this is the scarcer of the two types for this date and denomination combination. The raised features are dressed with a thick coat of golden shimmering frost, raising in admirable relief against the flashy and considerately reflective open expanses. Admitting precious few instances of handling that could be considered distracting even by the most seasoned eye. There's no doubting this is an iconic 20th century rarity; highly covetable when located this Choice and with the well-deserved Ultra Cameo designation, and we anticipate hotly contested bidding from quality-conscious collectors.
