William IV Proof Shilling 1831 PR65 NGC, KM713, S-3835. Plain edge. An absolutely phenomenal representative of this Proof-only issue, presenting the viewer with a near cameo contrast between the fields and devices by sheer virtue of its exquisite toning palette. While tied with 4 other pieces for the finest certified at NGC, it can be said with confidence that it likely surpasses its peers in visual quality, perfectly blending cobalt rims and magenta centers on the obverse with a purely sapphire reverse. Ex. Heritage Auction #3009 (April 2010, Lot 21758)
