Charles II gold Guinea 1680 AU58 NGC, KM440.1, S-3344. A remarkably fresh example of this softly-struck issue. Though it exhibits the ever-present weakness to the upper elements of Charles's hair (due to over-engraved dies), this piece nonetheless boasts excellent detail backlit by considerable residual luster. The early Guinea series saw considerable circulation, rendering this near-Mint State example a rarity and a veritable numismatic prize.
