1928 Great Britain George V Silver "Wreath" Crown - Low Mintage Key Date (Only 9K Struck) - Choice AU/Unc Borderline specimen

At TreasureHunterCo., authenticity comes first. 

Incredibly Rare First-Year "Wreath" Crown Key DateUp for sale is a remarkably scarce, raw 1928 United Kingdom Silver Crown. This historic piece represents the inaugural year of the legendary "Wreath Crown" series, meticulously designed by George Kruger Gray (reverse) and Bertram MacKennal (obverse). Struck by the Royal Mint in 50% silver primarily as Christmas distribution pieces for VIP clients, this coin is a foundational key date for twentieth-century British type collectors due to its tiny mintage of just 9,034 pieces.

Surface Analysis & Condition:This specimen exhibits a striking contrast in preservation between both sides:

The Reverse: Evaluates at a strict, choice Uncirculated tier. The intricate details of the Imperial crown, roses, shamrocks, and thistles remain perfectly defined and sharp, framed by intense original mint luster blooming through the fields.

The Obverse: Features the bare-headed left portrait of King George V. True to the type, the high points of the hair show a slight break in luster/mild softness. Given that these low-mintage premium strikes were rarely used in commerce, this minor wear is consistent with cabinet friction or a characteristic flat strike on the highest profile points.
