Victoria gold Sovereign 1860-SYDNEY UNC Details (Obverse Rim Filed) NGC, Sydney mint, KM4, Fr-10, Marsh-365. Arguably the rarest of the second type bust Sydney Sovereign dates, accompanied with an impeccable pedigree. In addition, the cataloger suspects this just might look like a 6/5 overdate which, if true, would make this coin an extremely rare (R3) piece according to the Marsh classification. Admitting obverse rim filing around 5 o'clock and a few instances of light contact, otherwise highly pleasing in appearance, displaying full-bodied struck designs over the profusely lustrous fields carrying the typical sage green undercurrent. Rarely seen in this state of preservation and an outstanding opportunity to acquire a piece of the famed Quartermaster Collection.
Ex. Quartermaster Collection (Monetarium June 2009, Lot 32); Paul Terry Collection; R. Jaggard Collection
