Anne gold Guinea 1714 MS63 NGC, KM538, S-3574. Amongst the finest specimens extant, this Mint State Guinea from the last year of Anne's reign exhibits the Queen in exceptionally sharp detail for a notoriously shallowly-engraved type. Fully brilliant luster gleams across the bold planchet, metal quality clearly very high; the only tone across the lemon-gold disc a light orange within the legends. Approaching the absolute ceiling for quality of Anne Guineas, the highest certified specimens of this year a duo of MS64s at NGC, none certified higher than MS63 at PCGS. A stunningly bold and bright example.
