Great Britain
Victoria Proof Gothic Crown 1847, S-3883, KM744, PR63 NGC. With "Undecimo" on edge. A sublime example of this classic crown. Considered by many to be the most beautiful crown ever produced. With full mirror-like surfaces. A few stray marks in the fields exist which define the grade, but the portrait of the queen is almost unrivalled. Many of the British "gentlemen" of the day carried one of these in their pockets to remind them of the greatness of their queen. Thus, so many are flawed.
Estimate: 6000-7000 USD
