Anne 1/2 Crown 1703-VIGO MS63 NGC, KM518.2, S-3580, ESC-569. Produced from silver captured from the Spanish at Vigo Bay. Ever popular for the colorful story behind its specie, this 'hallmarked' type hardly ever enters Mint State, and indeed this present piece is the finest we have ever handled. Bright with abundant mint luster, argent in the centers and toned a light seafoam green at the peripheries; Anne's portrait is especially bold with sharp detail to her hair and drapery. An exceptional piece for the type, and worthy of a proud place within a premium collection of Halfcrowns.
