George V gold Proof 5 Pounds 1911 PR65 PCGS, KM822, S-3994, W&R-414. Mintage: 2,812. A remarkable level of preservation for this instantly recognizable emission from George V's coronation Proof set, well-situated near the peak of attainable examples and which we see with greater frequency in recent years. Blessed with champagne golden reflectivity across watery surfaces that lack any noteworthy flaws, the medallic features of the piece at hand provide instant viewing enjoyment. Minute wisps limit the certification from further heights, blending with easily discernible die polish lines in the fields.
