James II gold 5 Guineas 1687 AU53 NGC, KM460.1, S-3397A. Some scattered marks and light rub on the high points, but overall an attractive specimen of this gold crown-size type which seems so hard to find in problem-free high grade. Though this specific date and SCBC number does come across the block regularly, they seem to only show up at auction at most a few times a year. Indeed, the last example that we have handled was over three years ago, which was graded VF Details. That only goes to further show what a good opportunity this as, as one very rarely encounters a high grade and problem free example of this type. Certainly worthy of serious consideration.
