Victoria gold "Shield" Sovereign 1880-M AU58 PCGS, Melbourne mint, KM6, S-3854. A scarce date in the Melbourne shield series. Perhaps surprisingly nearly all of the certified population falls short of Mint State, with only five pieces outranking the selection at hand across the two grading services. An attractively preserved and crisp reverse elevates this example well above average in terms of eye-appeal. Privately purchased from Jaggard's in Sydney, Australia; accompanied by their flip. From the James D. Wolfensohn Collection of Australian Sovereigns HID09801242017 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
