George III Proof Bank Token of 6 Shillings 1804 PR66 NGC, KM-Tn1, S-6615. A bold and impressive Gem Proof, representing the largest silver coin denomination ever produced in Ireland. Struck on a specially prepared plain edge, polished planchet that presents attractively watery fields carrying hints of russet and mauve, with whispering sky-blue tones silhouetting the sitter's majestic portrait. The raised features are exactingly rendered, where even the ermined borders of the King's drapery are readily identifiable on the matte-frosted designs. Currently tied for the finest certified across both major grading services, and a coin that must be viewed in hand to be fully appreciated.
