George VI gold Proof 5 Pounds 1937 PR64 Cameo NGC, KM861, S-4074. Mintage: 5,501. A very respectable example of this much-esteemed Proof-only issue, the last 5 Pound emission before the onset of Queen Elizabeth II's reign. Displaying commendable condition for the type, the King's bust is adorned with the thick, golden frost that is so sought after from this issue. On the reverse, Pistrucci's design remains struck-up and detailed with little evidence surrendered to exchange, the whole facet appearing flashy and dynamic.
