Description

George VI gold Proof 5 Pounds 1937 PR65 Ultra Cameo NGC, KM861, S-4074, Fr-409. Mintage: 5,500. A Proof-only coronation issue with the iconic design motif of St. George slaying the dragon, this large gold offering is the only 5 Pound piece to bear the effigy of George VI and the largest gold denomination of his reign. Struck exclusively for coronation Proof sets, it also marked the final 5 Pound emission before the denomination was revived under Elizabeth II. A highly desirable piece of exceptional quality, with profusely flashing surfaces complete with enticing pools of reflectivity that only a Proof issue with an enviable Ultra Cameo designation could provide.
