Description
George IV Proof Farthing 1821, S3822, PR65 RB PCGS, Laureate Head, P1408 (copper: very rare), a superb coin of extraordinary eye appeal: mirrored fields around central devices, the portrait delicately frosted or cameo (this piece slabbed prior to the services stating Cameo on their inserts), with enchanting mauve and green iridescence. Full, deep proof impression of the dies. Britannia and the British Lion at her feet never looked more majestic! These rare proofs are far rarer than most understand them to be, in the highest grades, and compared to many other coins are nothing less than bargains at current price levels.From the Exeter College Collection
Metal: Copper
