William & Mary Farthing 1694 MS63 Brown NGC, KM466.2, S-3453. Variety without stop after MARIA. Lavish quality for the minor coinage of these joint monarchs, the facial portraiture of whom is remarkably resolute, surely always the die engraver's intention, but so often obscured by the shallowness of the strike. While their necklines appear a bit less complete, they trade boldness for thick, radiant flow lines that give a special ethereal glow to an otherwise subdued piece. Comes with original Spink & Son ticket and envelope.
