Great Britain
Commonwealth gold Double Crown 1651/0 AU58 NGC, Sun mm, KM394.1, S-3210, N-2717 (R), Schneider-350. 4.51gm. Alluringly decorated in honeyed amber hues over surfaces and fields that display ample mint luster. Close inspection reveals trivial friction and highpoint rub that point to minimal circulation, yet it is more than fair to call this glowing offering virtually Mint State. A scarce opportunity to acquire so appealing an example of this type, which remains elusive in all states of preservation and is the sole example certified by NGC.
Ex. Jonathan P. Rosen Collection (CNG Triton XXI, January 2018, Lot 1466); Ian Gordon Collection (CNG Auction 90, May 2012, Lot 2626)
