Great Britain
George III 1/2 Crown 1817 MS64+ PCGS, KM672, S-3789. Small bust type. An practically immaculate near-gem, the slightly pale ash hue of the surfaces complemented effortlessly by russet oranges at the peripheries. For reference, we sold an MS65 example of the type for $1140 in our September Long Beach Auction #3067 (Lot 31655), and it would be little wonder so see this piece, with its prestigious pedigree and lack of die cracks, achieve even greater.
