Critique: Beautiful 3rd Crowned Head portrait of QE2. Had to buy this gem in England, since at the time only 19 had been graded PF70UC and they were scarce. Only 4722 individual coins were minted, which is one of the lower amounts for modern proof sovs. Unfortunately, there were quite a few others interested in this piece, and the bidding was strong, so I paid dearly for it. But it did come with the original box and COA (coin #2130) as a package deal, so I did get more than usual for my money.
