Victoria Proof "Gothic" Crown 1847 PR61 NGC, KM744, S-3883, ESC-2571. UN DECIMO edge. A famous type that never fails to excite a tremendous amount of bidding activity amongst seasoned English collectors, this emblematic Gothic crown presents the viewer with a darkened smoky tone across the surfaces that reveals highlights of gold and cobalt when inspected under good light. Moreover palely frosted over the young Queen's bust, this piece feels perceptibly medallic.
