Leopold I gold Proof Restrike 20 Francs 1835 PR64 Ultra Cameo NGC, Brussels mint, KM-A23.3, Fr-404 (original). By Braemt. Plain edge. Thick Planchet. A gorgeous example of this fascinating Proof Restrike issue featuring a young Leopold I. Though this type only infrequently appears at auction, the other examples this cataloger has seen don't have nearly as strong of a Cameo effect as this representative. The contrast between the luxuriously frosted golden motifs and the black fields create a tantalizing display. Though a few tiny contact marks in the fields and a couple of dark specks on the reverse wreath may prevent a Gem technical grade, the eye appeal of this rare offering is top-notch.
