George III Shilling 1787 MS64 NGC, KM607.2, S-3745A, ESC-1223 (R4). No stops on obverse, no hearts in Hanoverian shield. The highest graded by far of only two examples certified by NGC or PCGS (the other example graded AU50), this coin represents a sublime combination of preservation and rarity. Bright white and fully prooflike, the obverse field particularly reflective illuminating the outstanding engraving of George's portrait, the overall quality simply breathtaking. Simply unmatchable for visual appeal and extremely rare, a decidedly elite offering worthy of the highest tier of Shilling collectors.
