Scotland
Charles I gold 1/2 Unit (Double Crown) ND (1637-1642) XF45 NGC, Edinburgh mint, Third coinage, S-5534, Fr-57. By Nicholas Briot. A coin that testifies to the superiority of milled over hammered coin production as well as to Briot's undeniable engraving skill. A seldom seen issue, only the second we've offered, displaying moderately handled and well-defined motifs, occupied by a lovely honey tone.
