William & Mary gold "Elephant & Castle" 5 Guineas 1691 AU Details (Rim Filing) NGC, Royal mint, KM479.2, S-3423. Tertio edge. Despite the details designation, the rims, the edges, and the surfaces all retain their normal, original appearance. Furthermore, while the central illustrations show some highpoint wear, the overall nature of this selection remains bold, and the presence of light, ancient abrasions (including on the rims) nicely fade away beneath the rich, coppery tone. A highly celebrated issue with the distinctive elephant and castle motif below the jugate busts, worthy of careful review and a substantial premium.
