Great Britain: Victoria gold 5 Pounds 1887 MS66 NGC,...

Description

Victoria gold 5 Pounds 1887 MS66 NGC, Royal mint, KM769, S-3864. A truly beautiful example of this one-year type, currently among only four other certified examples in this elite grade assignment, featuring the Jubilee bust of Victoria atop prooflike fields that shimmer with golden luster. Upon closer inspection, the reverse motif equally pleases with incredible sharpness across the high points and a substantial amount of sparkle that promotes the strength of the devices. For a coin of this size and age, it seems virtually impossible to have escaped the pitfalls of handling; however, this example does just that. For the advanced collector who places an equal importance on eye appeal as well as technical quality, this offering fully delivers on both.
