Great Britain: George VI gold Proof 5 Pounds 1937 PR65 Deep Cameo PCGS,...

Description

George VI gold Proof 5 Pounds 1937 PR65 Deep Cameo PCGS, KM861, S-4074. Mintage: 5,500. This exceptional specimen exemplifies the highly sought-after Proof-only series of George VI, marking the final 5 Pound release before the transition to Queen Elizabeth II's era. The coin exhibits superior quality, with the regal portrait and Pistrucci's St. George displaying a striking golden frost that contrasts beautifully against the mirror-like fields, an interplay clearly deserving of this "Deep Cameo" designation by PCGS. The fields lack any major instance of handling, just a few chirps visible in the wider expanses as can be expected in the "Proof" real estate. Increasingly difficult to procure any finer, a wholly commendable representative of this refined collectible type.
