Description
George IV Proof Shilling 1826, S3812, PR65 NGC, Ex: Cheshire Collection, Bare Head, Gem Proof with rich amber-green iridescent surfaces, sparkling mirror field, deep proof impression, and intriguing crackled texture (sometimes called orange-peel) on the reverse. This coin is truly elusive in so fine a grade as this, most seen being dusky gray in color and impaired, typically with nicks and lots of hairlines. This jewel is the happy exception! Quite rare, moreso in this quality state, for few sets of proofs were made in the early 19th century. Modestly valued, considering what it is.From the Exeter College Collection
