Lot description: South Africa George V 8-Piece Certified Proof Set 1931 NGC, 1) 2-1/2 Shillings PR66, KM19.3 2) 2 Shillings PR66, KM22 3) Shilling PR66, KM17.3 4) 6 Pence PR65, KM16.2 5) 3 Pence PR65, KM15.2 6) Penny PR65 Brown, KM14.3 7) 1/2 Penny PR65 Brown, KM13.3 8) 1/4 Penny PR66 Brown, KM12.3 KM-PS6. Mintage: 62 sets. A laudable Proof set which includes every issue from the 2-1/2 Shillings through the Farthing, all preserved at the Gem level. The bronze issues display a consistent chocolate-brown gloss, while the silver specimens sparkle alluringly underneath a thin veil of silver patina, the binding characteristic of the overall set one of superior sharpness and striking quality. Given the very low mintage of only 62 sets, the offering represents a scarce opportunity for the discerning collector of South African Proofs, who will undoubtedly recognize both the quality and rarity embodied by the coins in this impressive assemblage. https://coins.ha.com/itm/south-africa/south-africa-george-v-8-piece-certified-proof-set-1931-ngc-total-8-coins-/a/3113-31267.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchives-WorldCoins-3113-01082024 HID02906262019 © 2023 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved Estimate: 6000-8000 USD |
