Victoria Proof "Gothic" Crown 1847 PR64 Cameo NGC, KM744, S-3883, ESC-2571. UN DECIMO on edge. Few areas of world coinage inspire the same degree of admiration as do the emissions of Great Britain, and among those, few can lay claim to evoke such instant appreciation than the "Gothic" Crown of Victoria. Witnessed here with a most abundant cabinet patina that lightly subdues what is ultimately boisterous mint flash beneath, shining through most prominently to the protected regions of the reverse. Benefitted by a gracious coat of frost across Wyon's bust and reverse designs, fully lending itself to the advanced "Cameo" designation that only 10% of certified examples are ever bestowed.
