Five Guineas 1691 TERTIO S.3423 Elephant and Castle below the busts, 8 Harp Strings, 11 Billets, approaching EF for overall wear but the obverse cleaned on the portraits causing a shallow depression in places and the portraits now duller in appearance than the surrounding coin, retaining some mint lustre in the legend, the reverse with minor haymarking by the G of MAG. We note Spink now lists this coin at £20,000 in VF and £120,000 in EF, this represents an opportunity to obtain the sought after Elephant and Castle type with high grade examples of William and Mary Five Guineas realising tens of thousands of pounds more.
Estimate: 24000-28000 GBP
