George II gold "East India Company" 1/2 Guinea 1729 VF Details (Bent) NGC, KM565.2, S-3682. A bright and attractive Half Guinea struck from gold provided by the notorious East India Company, their signature 'E.I.C.' located beneath George's bust. Bearing little visual evidence substantiating the 'bent' designation assigned by NGC, this attractive evenly-circulated piece exhibits a superb golden gleam to the fields tinged with a light red patina. A well-produced and enticing piece of British numismatic history.
