Netherlands: Willem III gold Proof 10 Gulden 1887 PR66 NGC,...

Description

Willem III gold Proof 10 Gulden 1887 PR66 NGC, Utrecht mint, KM106 (unlisted in Proof), Fr-342, Schulman-556. Broadaxe mm. Very scarce in Proof, and one of only two certified by NGC in this format, with the other, also certified PR66, previously having sold in our January 2014 New York Signature Auction for a total of $4,406.25 including Buyer's Premium. That example was described as a "dazzling premium gem with deeply mirrored surfaces and razor sharp details", and the same can absolutely be said about this admirable example, which features a partial cameo effect to the obverse, which rounds out to near-completion on the reverse.
