Great Britain: Victoria gold Sovereign 1842 MS65 PCGS,...

Description

Victoria gold Sovereign 1842 MS65 PCGS, KM736.1, S-3852, Marsh-25. Variety with closed 2 in date. Preserved far above most Young Head Victorian Sovereigns, this splendid gem issue captures a remarkably fresh appearance, its velveteen surfaces virtually unmarred by stray marks and proving captivating from all angles. For reference, the next finest we have presented is an MS64, which brought $4920 as part of the December 2019 sale of the José Rodrigues Collection. With the rising collector interest in the British series in general and the Sovereign in particular, we can only anticipate the heights to which the present offering will soar.
