GREAT BRITAIN. Groat, ND (1553-54). London Mint; mm: Pomegranate. Mary I. PCGS AU-55.
S-2492; N-1960. Obverse: Crowned and mantled bust left; Reverse: Coat-of-arms over long cross fourchee. Arising from the brief reign of Mary I, this wonderful example delivers much pleasing appeal with a strong strike and limited signs of time in circulation. Good luster and handsome tone remain in place on the surfaces, with this piece emanating much beauty. A tremendous piece for any specialist in British Hammered coinage.
Estimate: $800 - $1200
