Description

George III Proof Pattern Crown ND (1820) PR64 NGC, KM-PnB80, ESC-2055 (prev. 221). Plain edge. By Thomas Webb and George Mills for Mudie. An elusive Pattern issue from the final year of George III's illustrious reign, boasting one of his most forgiving and sensitively rendered portraits that lends an air of humanity to the monarch. The reverse features a finely engraved quartered arms decorated with symbols of the kingdom and nary an imperfection of note. Both sides face up especially well under illumination, showcasing a vibrant polychromatic tone that perfectly centers the engraved devices. Of the 30 currently witnessed by NGC, only two rank finer, and as a conditional and aesthetic outlier, expect an elevated bidder response when crossing the auction block. Ex.
