Victoria Proof "Gothic" Crown 1847 PR61 NGC, KM744, S-3883, ESC-2578 (R2). Plain edge. N over inverted N in UNITA variety. Struck in pure silver. A confident example of this more elusive plain edge "Gothic" Crown variety, distinguished by the inverted over-punch of the N in UNITA on the reverse legend. Though not evaluated in the loftiest state of preservation, a conclusion confirmed by layer of wisps visible in the fields, the piece at hand fully exudes a Mint State appearance. Bold devices are framed by brilliant cobalt and flaming-amber tones percolating in the peripheries, broadcasting excellent visual appeal. A prime example for those wishing to add this subvariety to their cabinet at a smart sum. HID09801242017 © 2023 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
