. S.3883; ESC-288;
Dav-106; KM-744. Edge, Un Decimo. Queen Victoria by Wil-
liam Wyon. Gothic crowned bust left. Legend in Gothic
script.
Reverse
: Inverted die axis crowned cruciform
shields, emblems in angles, date in Roman numerals
MDCCCLVII. A choice example distinguished by a rich
cameo appearance. The ornately detailed bust of Victoria
exhibits a golden frostiness set within deep attractively
toned surfaces. Beautiful in design and elusive, it is easy to
understand why Gothic Crowns with such strong eye appeal
are so highly prized.
PCGS graded Proof 63 Cameo,
