James I (1603-25) gold Laurel ND (1624) MS62 PCGS, S-2638B, N-2115. Third coinage. Trefoil mm. A choice and highly lustrous specimen, essentially unchanged since it was struck almost four hundred years ago. Somewhat weak on James's face, but otherwise a sharp and highly representative example struck on a high-quality corn-yellow flan; this type marks the first representation on coinage of an English monarch with a laureate wreath, a practise which would last up until the end of George IV's reign in 1830. A superb piece of Jacobean gold in an enviable certified grade.
