Elizabeth I (1558-1603) gold "Fine" Sovereign of 30 Shillings ND (1592-1595) AU Details (Graffiti) NGC, Tower mint, Tun mm, Sixth Issue, S-2529, N-2003 (R), Schneider-783. 14.96gm. (Tun) ELIZABETH • D' • G' • ANG' | FRA' • ET • HIB' • REGINA:, Elizabeth enthroned facing within tressure, scepter in right hand, globus in left, portcullis at feet / (Tun) A' • DNO' • FACTV' • EST • ISTVD ET • EST • MIRAB' • IN • OCVL' • NRS •, royal shield over Tudor rose. An all too collectible type that generates substantial interest for collectors regardless of preservation. While marred by the occasional instances of graffiti, notably to Elizabeth's dress and above the reverse shield, the piece maintains the majority of its originality and palpable visual appeal. Enveloped in a harvest-gold patina, we anticipate ample enthusiasm commensurate with the rapidly growing collector interest in the series.
