Henry VIII (1509-47) gold Crown of the Double Rose ND (1546-7) VF/XF, Bristol mint, S-2310, N-1836. WS mm on reverse only. An especially late gold issue of Henry VIII, produced in the last years of this iconic monarch's life. Characteristic for its 'double rose' depicted on the obverse (which gave the denomination its name), this denomination is charming for its stark Tudor imagery, clearly preserved and depicted on the present offering. Lightly circulated with some minor areas of weakness, the overall quality of detail is very high; there is a stable crack running through the center of the flan, through which daylight cannot be seen. A highly attractive piece of Tudor gold.
From the Collection of a Berkshire Gentleman
