Lot description: India Travancore. Rama Varma IV gold Sovereign ME 1057 (1881) MS65 NGC, KM32, Fr-1403. Mintage: 1,000. One-year type. Among the most coveted standard Sovereign issues from any nation, represented by an unrivaled specimen that outshines others graded at NGC and PCGS by several grade points. A thorough examination reveals only allure as unblemished luster draws the eye to the fields, soon to be distracted by the impeccable clarity of the motifs, particularly the iconic Travancore conch shell. As one of the finest extant of the type, the piece at hand would be a stellar acquisition for any seasoned collector of Indian gold. Ex.
