George II gold 2 Guineas 1738 MS62+ NGC, KM573.3, Fr-339, S-3674. A type seldom if ever seen in Mint State, and thus one that captures the viewer's attention when it appears as high-quality as this superb specimen. With abundant coverage of yellow-white luster, the planchet boldly impressed with the likeness of the King and the intricate English/Hanoverian shields; the surfaces are perfect, minimal planchet flecking and with a light green-red tone. The obverse shows the die crack noted on the majority of specimens from this year. A coin which has seen little if any significant circulation and is rewarded accordingly with superb eye-appeal.
