Lot 1313
Great Britain. 5 Pounds, 1887. Victoria Jubilee Head. S-3864; Fr-390; KM-769. These coins never circulated widely, although enough worn coins are seen in the market to prove that some did in fact serve their commercial purpose. By and large, they were used in bank transfers during the Victorian age. Few have survived as finely preserved as the present example, which is prooflike on the obverse with glittering mirrored fields, and satiny on the reverse. Probably originally part of a mint set. Superb Choice BU. PCGS graded MS-64.
Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,000.
