Near-Choice Gold Coronation Medal of William IV

William IV gold Proof "Coronation" Medal 1831 PR62+ Ultra Cameo NGC, BHM-1475, Eimer-1251. 33mm. 27.59gm. By William Wyon. A virtually impeccable "Coronation" type engraved by the indelible William Wyon featuring the King's now iconic bust and a seldom-seen depiction of Queen Adelaide. Golden resplendence abounds this near-Choice offering, further accentuated by a wholly deserving "Ultra Cameo" superlative that stuns at first sight. Only 1,203 examples of this Medal were produced in gold, and of this low mintage, 238 were subsequently melted, leaving just 965 surviving pieces, with a fraction of that having been submitted to grading services. As it stands, only three examples rank finer, making this a top-tier target for those on the hunt for coronation types.

Metal: Gold
Diameter: 33mm
