Great Britain
Henry VI (1st Reign, 1422-1461) gold Noble ND (1422-1430) MS64 NGC, London mint, Lis mm, Annulet issue, S-1799, N-1414. 6.94gm. Crowned king with sword and shield standing facing in ship, an annulet by his sword arm / Floriate cross with h in central quadrilobe, an annulet in one spandrel. A superior grade for this medieval ship issue. Beautifully satiny and well-centered upon a round planchet, with an exceedingly crisp strike and almost no areas of weakness. A slight strike doubling upon the obverse does little to detract from the overall appeal. Tied with two others for the finest certified by NGC.
