Great Britain
Charles II gold 5 Guineas 1684 Fine (cleaned, ex-jewelry, sweated), KM444.1, S-3331. 37mm. 38.90gm. TRICESIMO SEXTO edge. The largest denomination of the British monetary system and one that is always sought by collectors of the series. Despite showing its fair share of handling and imperfections, an added loop removed at 12 o'clock and engraving present on the reverse arms to strengthen the details, the piece at hand presents the prospective bidder with a seldom-encountered opportunity to acquire a more affordable example of this rare type, which would likely otherwise remain out of reach in very high states of preservation.
