Farouk gold Proof "Royal Wedding" 500 Piastres AH 1357 (1938) PR62 PCGS, London mint, KM373. Commemorating the royal wedding of King Farouk to Queen Farida. Abundant reflectivity in the fields places this piece very near to a Cameo designation, held back by only a slight lack of the necessary frost over the devices. Quite appealing for the assigned grade, displaying magnificent watery surfaces with only the smallest of contact marks and hairlines, none of them distracting. Superb as an example of this popular type.
