Description
William IV Proof Sixpence 1831, S3836, plain edge, PR65 PCGS, a spectacularly beautiful and truly superb specimen, taken from one of the rare coronation sets of this year -- one of the finest seen by this cataloguer over more than 30 years of handling the finest British coins. This proof glitters with reflective mirrors sheathed in shades of exquisite iridescence reflecting a rainbow of colors -- bright blue and golden green predominating. The texture of the portrait is almost perfect, essentially flawless. This is a vibrant proof which, in the cataloguer's opinion, is conservatively graded as PR65. Thoroughly original, and one of the finest known.From the Exeter College Collection
