Australia, 1863 Sydney Mint Sovereign -
Dozens of coins come and go across my desk every month, but very few of them catch my eye the way this coin did. Lustrous, sharply-struck, and with a hint of cameo on the obverse, this 1863 Sydney Mint sovereign is the finest example of this date I’ve seen on the market in recent years. Take a look at the detailing in the Queen’s wreath, the sharpness in the crown on the reverse, the smoothness in the fields, the wholeness of the rims: This piece was surely put aside very early on in its life. From an old North Sydney collection, and the equal-finest graded by PCGS (4/18). VERY RARE this nice.
