James II Crown 1687 MS63 NGC, KM463, S-3407, ESC-743. TERTIO edge. Scarce quality for this ever-popular 17th-century crown, with balanced steel-gray tone over both sides and darkened patination at the base of the raised elements. Well struck throughout, with the reverse shields showing full detail under magnification, and touches of luster that brighten from below. Rather mark-free for the issue, with only mild evidence of light handling present, in additional to occasional haymarks. A bold offering, worthy of type set inclusion.
