William III 1/2 Crown 1700 MS66 NGC, KM492.2, S-3494. A truly gorgeous and super-choice example of this late issue of old King William, the strike nearly full, the luster intense, and the toning simply awesome - a rich palette of vibrant golden blue and deep mauve iridescence, with bright silvery luster peeking out around numerous parts of the legends, creating wonderful eye-appeal in a silver coin type that is seldom found sparkling and/or beautifully toned. In an older NGC holder, this coin would certainly be worthy of a 'star' certification were it reholdered. Among the finest known, now certified, formerly part of a little group of exceptionally fine William III silver found in a London safe some decades ago. Deserves in-hand examination for its full dazzling effect, an offering which is sure to appeal to those concerned with only the best of British coins.
