Edward III (1327-1377) gold Noble 1361-1369 MS65 PCGS, Calais mint, Treaty Period, S-1505, North-1234 (R). Crowned king with sword and shield standing facing in ship, a saltire at the beginning of his titles and no flag at the stern of the ship / Floriate cross with C in central quadrilobe, cross potent mm. A monumental example of this treaty-period issue, beautifully struck with essentially pristine surfaces. Traces of striking weakness are noted in a couple of areas on the reverse, but are not immediately obvious. Light tone suffused with just a hint of olive hue blankets the velvety luster present throughout and accentuates the sharp details and unmarked fields. The PCGS attribution of S-1484 is incorrect, as that would be a London mint, Pre-Treaty piece including French titles which are not present here.
Estimate: 10000-15000 USD
