1887 Queen Victoria Gold 4-Coin Sovereign Proof Set consists of:
All four coins depict the portrait of Queen Victoria on the obverse, and Benedetto Pistrucci's famous portrayal of St. George and the dragon on the reverse except the half-sovereign which is a Shieldback.
Only 797 sets were issued by the Royal Mint in 1887. The set shown was originally part of an 11 coin proof set, but the silver coinage was sold seperately many years ago. The case is also missing. Even in this state the set is worth maybe £35,000.
The coins are all in near FDC condition, with minimal hairlines in the fields.
It is certainly one of the nicest examples seen.
The portraits would be classed as Deep Cameo.
