Description

Rare Gem Specimen Sovereign

Edward VII gold Specimen Sovereign 1909-C SP65 PCGS, Ottawa mint, KM14. A famous Canadian rarity - one of only three examples certified by PCGS (none seen by NGC), and tied for finest graded with just one other. Its exceptional quality is immediately captivating, the remarkable smoothness of its fields a perfect platform for the showcasing of its frosty luster; Edward's portrait is needle-sharp, as is the entirety of the striking detail. The planchet retains its mint-fresh goldenrod color, with hints of orange tone forming in the recesses. Unbeatable in its technical quality, eye appeal and rarity, a must-have for the serious collector of Canadian Sovereigns.
