George II gold 2 Guineas 1738 MS62+ NGC, KM576, S-3667B, EGC-567. An exceptionally crisp example laden with mirrored Prooflike reflectivity across lustrous surfaces that exude brilliant, harvest-gold color. The exactness of the strike is particularly evident in George's well-defined hair curls, flowing gracefully down the King's neck and complementing equally crisp details throughout the reverse Hanoverian shield. Only light friction holds this piece back from finer certification and, indeed, with a well-deserved "plus" grade, the offering comes exceedingly close to choice certification, indicating an unusually high quality for the type.
