Lot description: Great Britain George IV Proof Crown 1826 PR64 NGC, London mint, KM699, S-3806, ESC-2336 (R). SEPTIMO edge. Mintage: 150. An illustrious Proof Crown featuring the brief-tenured portrait of George IV by William Wyon showcasing the King with a "bare head". Bathed in the coveted "gun-metal" style toning that has imbued this coin with iridescent midnight blue colors that illuminate the gray-scale overtones. The resulting appearance is one of understated dignity, the brilliance of this coin's proof nature largely revealing itself as backlit luminosity. With a mintage as low as this, it's no surprise that we only tend to offer this emission in grades equal to or greater than this near-Gem once every couple of years. https://coins.ha.com/itm/great-britain/great-britain-george-iv-proof-crown-1826-pr64-ngc-/a/3113-31171.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchives-WorldCoins-3113-01082024 HID02906262019 © 2023 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved Estimate: 18000-22000 USD |
