GREAT BRITAIN. Sovereign (30 Shillings), ND (1592-95). London Mint; mm: tun. Elizabeth I. NGC AU-55.
S-2529; Fr-209; North-2003. 6th Coinage. Weight: 15.12 gms. One of the most ostentatious and popular issues in the entire history of English coinage, this decadent Sovereign is intricately designed in a manner that outstrips almost all other coinage of the time. The present example displays a reliable strike that delivers nearly full details and readable legends. Luster remains evident and the details have only seen the lightest of circulation. This type is reliably in demand, so this magnificent example should command much attention from the many collectors of English numismatics.
Estimate: $35000 - $50000
