Description

Virtually Pristine Veiled Head Sovereign

Victoria gold Proof Sovereign 1893 PR67 Ultra Cameo NGC, KM785, S-3874, Fr-396a. Mintage: 773. The year 1893 marked the introduction of Queen Victoria's final portrait, the Veiled Head bust, and stands as the only Proof date in the Veiled Head Sovereign series. The last time we sold this issue in this elevated of a grade was 2019, making this event an exceptionally exciting opportunity. A real blazer, this majestic piece of British numismatics is witnessed here in a perfect shade of honeyed, caramel-gold, with fully mirrored fields that create a truly superb cameo contrast worthy of its Ultra Cameo designation. Arguably one of the most iconic coins of Queen Victoria's reign, perhaps even the most iconic of all, and to find it in such an advanced tier of preservation is certainly no small feat.
