Great Britain
Oliver Cromwell Halfcrown 1658, ESC-447, S-3227A, MS62 NGC. Designed by Thomas Simon, this wonderful example features the laureate bust of Cromwell and the crowned shield of the Protectorate. An extremely rare, mint-state example with desirable, steel-gray patination over iridescent highlights and virtually no wear. By far one of the most beautiful examples to come up in auction and a coin most worthy of a premium bid.
