George II Proof 6 Pence 1746 PR64 NGC, KM582.2, S-3711, ESC-1619. Grained edge. Strangely, this particular denomination of the 4-piece 1746 Proof set does not appear nearly as much at auction as the other three; accordingly, it generates particular interest when offered, and rarely is one offered in as high quality as this. The exquisite platinum coloring of this piece is punctuated by icy spears of white luster when tilted in the light, electric flashes which serve to illuminate the extraordinary depth of detail retained by this Proof minor. George's portrait exhibits absolutely no wear nor detraction to his mass of curls, the devices boldly rendered and the planchet unmarred by improper handling. Truly, for the connoisseur looking to complete his 1746 set, look no further for your ideal 1746 Sixpence - it is here! From the Lake County Collection
