Victoria gold "Young Head/Shield" Sovereign 1887-M MS62 NGC, Melbourne mint, KM7, S-3854A. The finest example of this rare date that we have had the pleasure to offer. Glowing with soft luster, surfaces fresh and free from major marks, striking detail crisp and barely touched by time; the last example of this type we handled was graded AU55 and realized $9,000 at our April 2019 sale. This far finer Mint State offering will likely garner considerably stronger interest from grade-conscious subscribers to the Australian numismatic series.
