It's a 1964-1965 Royal Sahara, in Pewter Gray!


This typewriter was only made for two years. (I think that this is because of the ridiculously round case, and the fact that it is essentially a Royal Safari, which sold for $20 less when it was new) Most of these typewriters are found in Royal's wedge-shaped case--the round case has a flimsy-seeming handle, and was not originally designed to be a typewriter case; it has a cushion that was placed in it by the factory to hold the machine in place. 
This was the standard Sahara ad that appeared in countless newspapers.  The case weighs roughly the same as Royal's more standard case.
