The first specimen was lot 30396 in Heritage sale 3049 (Long Beach, September 2016), where it sold for $2,408.75. The catalog description[1] noted, "Republic gold Proof 5 Sertums 1966 PR67 Cameo PCGS. An essentially flawless example of this one-year issue that commemorates the 40th anniversary of the accession of Jigme Wangchuk, presenting orange-peel coloration, satin-textured design features, and deeply-reflective mirrors that host a light layer of tone surrounding the outer registers. Scarcely-offered in the marketplace, and with a mintage of just 598 pieces struck in Proof, very pleasing in this jewel-like quality." The second specimen was part of lot 20039 in Stack's Bowers 2018 NYINC sale (New York, January 2018), which sold for $4,320. The catalog description[2] noted, "BHUTAN. Three Piece Proof Set, 1966.
