William III gold Guinea 1701 MS63 PCGS, KM498.1, S-3463. Second bust. William III's coinage generally shows inelegant production and clear evidence of circulation. As such, the survival of this Guinea is absolutely astounding, its surfaces barely marked and its mint bloom fully present. Some flecking is present on the reverse (a common feature of this type), but does not distract from the exceptional quality of this choice Mint State piece. We last sold this same coin in our August 2016 sale for $11,000 hammer.
