Great Britain
William & Mary gold 5 Guineas 1692 XF45 NGC, KM479.1, S-3422, Schneider-Unl. QVARTO edge. An expressive representative of this sought-after type and one that garners substantial interest when seen on the market in any state of preservation. Displaying laudable boldness owed to a firm strike, the iconic dual portraits of William and Mary remain easily discernible from afar, while the reverse faces up especially fine, punctuated by a halo of amber-tinged residual flash. With only a uniform and gentle dispersal of friction capping the assigned grade, this specimen is among the more pleasing renditions from this series we've handled in recent years, and will doubtlessly be met with eager bidder interest.
