Great Britain: William IV Proof Crown 1831 PR65 Cameo NGC,...

Description

Gorgeous Coronation Proof Crown

William IV Proof Crown 1831 PR65 Cameo NGC, KM715, S-3833, ESC-2462 (R2). Plain edge. Incuse W.W. on truncation. A famed Proof-only issue struck for William IV's 1831 Coronation Proof set, represented here in a supremely rare condition. NGC's Cameo designation here is well deserved, the fields crackling during in hand inspection, igniting a most pleasing patina of teal, lavender, and lemon. William Wyon's engraving sees full articulation on the facets, the bust appearing robust and lifelike, as the shield emits an ornate and regal character. The piece at hand is bested by just one example at half a point higher on the NGC census, and one PR66 Cameo at PCGS, indicating that this offering is one of the finest extant on the market. A favorite of British collectors that whenever offered brings greater sums, a trend we expect to continue with the current example.

璀璨華美之加冕精製克朗銀幣

1831年英國威廉四世像1克朗精製銀幣。PR65 Cameo NGC。
光邊。W.W.陰文鑄記。這款銀幣聲名遠播，是為紀念威廉四世於1831年加冕而發行，並僅有精製版本存世。此幣品相之佳難以比擬，獲NGC評「高浮雕」實至名歸。在手上細看時，底板鋒芒畢露，呈現出藍綠、薰衣草藍和檸黃的悅目包漿。William Wyon爐火純青的雕工在正背面一覽無遺，國王肖像惟肖惟妙，盾徽盛飾堂皇。在NGC的記錄中僅有一例以半分稍勝此例，而PCGS則另見的一枚PR66 Cameo，可見此例品相名列前茅。此幣向來是英國收藏家的摯愛，每每都能斬獲可觀成績，敝司深信此幣亦不遑多讓。
