| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large numeral '4' dominates the centre of the field, surmounted by a royal crown and flanked by the date 1838, with '18' to the left and '38' to the right of the figure. The central device is encircled by a wreath of oak leaves and acorns, tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The entire composition is contained within a dentillated border and exhibits the crisp, deeply struck surfaces characteristic of a proof striking. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Maundy 4 Pence is a silver denomination by long tradition — this gold proof is a pattern or trial piece, almost certainly struck as part of the first consolidated proof set issued for Victoria's coronation year. The Royal Mint produced a small number of gold proofs across multiple denominations in 1838, primarily for presentation purposes and for collectors with direct access to the Mint. William Wyon's young head portrait appeared here for the first time on a British coinage, freshly completed that year.
