James I (1603-25) gold Unite ND (1613-15) MS63 NGC, 10.07g, S-2619, N-2084. Second coinage. Cinquefoil mm. Truly Mint State, a fabulous coin which captivates the viewer from very first glance. Besides some double-striking and localised weakness in the legends, this coin is unusually well-made for the type, James's portrait intricately performed, dressed in elaborate armor and crown and holding the orb and scepter of office. Fully original surfaces glisten with abundant mint luster, a rare occurrence on hammered gold of this age, and this Unite's quality is certainly recognized by NGC and PCGS, as neither have graded any examples higher than the present sublime specimen. Remarkably preserved and of intense visual appeal, an absolutely delightful example of the type!
