Victoria Proof Gothic Crown 1847 PR61 NGC, Royal mint, KM744, S-3883. "UNDECIMO" edge. A most attractive example of this highly-regarded type featuring the impeccably-styled portrait of Victoria surrounded by gothic legends. While the obverse sports all-over charcoal-gray tone that, upon rotation, explodes with intensely luminous, golden highlights, the reverse presents a moodier palate with varying shades of blue surrounding the legends. Despite light hairlines that are well-camouflaged beneath the sumptuous surfaces, this specimen is highly satisfying and avidly-sought in a proof designation.
Estimate: 5000-6000 USD
