Prussia. Wilhelm I gold Proof Coronation Medal of 12 Ducats Weight 1861-Dated MS60 NGC, Marienburg-2588 var. (in gold). 42mm. 41.30gm. By C. Pfeuffer. A massive, gold coronation medal featuring the conjoined busts of the Wilhelm I and Queen Augusta with various coats of arms around the royal sword, scepter, and orb. As one would expect on a medal of this size, minor handling is noted in the form of faint wisps; however, the deeply-engraved and sculptured designs remain awe-inspiring, and on the reverse the Cameo-like contrast is particularly stunning.
