Description

Transvaal. Republic bronze Proof Pattern "Coarse Beard" Burgers Pond 1874 PR65 Red and Brown NGC, Heaton mint, KM-XPn7, Hern-B5. Struck from the official dies by Leonard Wyon. Large date variety. Short (coarse) beard, reeded edge, coin axis. An absolutely magnificent survivor, with gleaming Gem Proof fields carrying eye-catching auburn tone. Executed with precision and aplomb, the raised motifs are enhanced by a luminous layer of frost that pays tribute to master engraver Wyon's skills. Currently the sole finest certified at NGC and worthy of a premium bid.
