1937 King George VI Proof Specimen Half Sovereign - ungraded
A superb example the 1937 George VI proof Specimen half sovereign. Being of very high grade this coin exhibits a very few hairlines, ungraded, we estimate @pf65.
The plain edge Proof gold half sovereigns were produced to celebrate the Coronation of King George VI on the 12th of May 1937 as part of 4 coin gold Proof sets, with a mintage of 5,501 pieces, they were technically patterns as they did not have a milled edge like earlier gold Five Pounds of other reigns.
