GREAT BRITAIN. Crown, (160)1. London Mint; mm: 1. Elizabeth I. NGC AU-53.
S-2582; Dav-3757; KM-7; N-2012. Weight: 30.04 gms. This impressive crown from late in the reign of Elizabeth offers an alluring cabinet tone and charming, well centered strike. The handling is very minor and evenly spread, while some hints of brilliance still emanate from the protected areas. For completeness, a few planchet stress marks are noted near the central portions, but are entirely consistent with the issue.
Estimate: $6000 - $8000
