Oliver Cromwell Crown 1658/7 AU58 NGC, KM393.2, S-3226, ESC-10. Most impressive, with strong detailing retained across the designs, and with the diagnostic hallmarks noted for the type, including the die crack that horizontally transverses Cromwell's bust. The evenly shaded gunmetal surfaces still deploy noticeable luster in the recessed areas, and under the light, the fields take on a cerulean hue, confirming the originality of this selection. Minor handling in the way of finite scratches or gentle nicks largely remain unimportant, while the obvious overdate and pebbled texture on the draped bust add to the overall allure. From the highly controversial reign of Oliver Cromwell, whose historical legacy ranges from dictatorial to heroic, and a excellent example of this elusive series thusly.
