*The Gold is matching although the Five Pounds photograph was taken after being graded, hence the slight difference in tone due to the reflectiveness of being encapsulated in the slab. 

The Gold has been graded and slabbed by NGC as detailed below:

1911 Gold Proof Five Pounds, PF 63 Cameo, Certification number: 6029631-001.
1911 Gold Proof Two Pounds, PF 64 Cameo, Certification number: 2110107-001.

**The 1911 ‘Long Proof Set’ has a mintage of only 2,812 sets, most of which have since been separated and sold separately. These ‘Long Sets’ are now becoming very rare within the U.K. market place, especially the original matching examples such as this.
