1927 George V Proof Wreath Crown: Identification and Value Guide

The 1927 George V Proof Wreath Crown is a Proof version of the George V Wreath Crown design. The obverse portrait was by Bertram Mackennal and the wreath reverse was designed by George Kruger Gray.

How to identify a Proof

Check the surface finish, fields, detail and edge, but do not assume that a polished or cleaned circulation coin is a Proof. Specialist authentication may be appropriate for an expensive example.

Value

Proof status, preservation, provenance and demand can have a large effect on value. Compare completed sales of authenticated examples in similar condition. Dealer asking prices are not completed-sale results.
