George V (1910-36), 0.500 silver Matt Proof Crown, 1927, struck from sand-blasted dies, bare head left, BM raised on truncation for engraver Bertram Mackennal, Latin legend and toothed border surrounding, GEORGIVS V DEI GRA: BRITT: OMN: REX, rev. struck en medaille, Imperial crown, date above, emblematic wreath surrounding of roses, shamrocks and thistles, small K.G. to right of lowest rose for engraver Kruger Gray, denomination in words at bottom, Latin legend surrounding, .FID. .DEF. .IND. .IMP (cf.Linecar & Stone 37; Bull 3632 R7; ESC 367A; Davies 1630; S.4036). Toned practically as struck, has been graded and slabbed by NGC as PF66 Matte; of the highest rarity with only one other example known to us in private hands. NGC certification 4377122-001. The legends translate across both sides as "George the Fifth by the grace of God, King of all the Britons, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India." The matt Proof finish to what are usually brilliant Proof coins was used especially at the Royal Mint for photographic purposes, from around the mid-1920's until as late as the mid 1970's. As flash photography was used to illustrate promotional material, the brilliant Proofs caused too much reflection in the resulting imaging at this period of time, to be acceptable and it was much easier to literally strike one or two examples with a satin matt finish, to not reflect the flash bulb in those days before digital imaging was possible. Bertram Mackennal (1863-1931) was the Australian engraver (later knighted) responsible for the obverse design. George Kruger Gray (1880-1943) was responsible for designing and engraving all the reverse designs.
