George III gold Guinea 1796 MS63 NGC, Royal mint, KM609, S-3729. A particularly choice example of this extremely challenging key-date guinea with exceptional orange-gold patina highlighting the legends and an exceptional strike that boldly renders George's bust and the spade-shaped shield for which the type is named. Sure to excite the guinea date-collector with only two examples graded MS63 at NGC and none designated finer.
