- GREAT BRITAIN. Gold 10 Tolas Ingot, ND (ca. 1960). London Mint (Royal Mint Refinery). PCGS AU-58. A-651. AGW: 3.7542 oz. Fineness: .9999. A wonderous and large ingot, this piece was poured as a 10 Tola weight and has a Montagu hallmark on the reverse, making it likely that it passed through the London bullion exchange. It is easy to get lost in the rich and luminous luster of this piece. Established in 1852, the Royal Mint Refinery was operated by N.M. Rothschild & Sons for more than 100 years. By the time it ceased operations in 1968, the Refinery developed such a stellar reputation that it was processing much of the gold and silver bullion sent to London from around the world. After a 47-year hiatus, the Royal Mint revived the Royal Mint Refinery brand in 2015, although the present example clearly dates to the earlier period under Rothschild & Sons. Estimate: $8,000 - $8,500. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
