Lot 30THE PERKINS BACON DIE PROOFS: State 1 die proof of the completed design with a solid field behind the King's head now with cleared surrounds, in green on highly glazed thin card (94x125mm) with no endorsements or cachet BW #70(DP)11Eb, Cat $15,000. Ex Perkins Bacon Archives: only two in this format exist. Die proofs in colours other than black or red are far fewer in number & so, in our opinion, should be worth a significant premium.
