George I gold Guinea 1717 MS62 NGC, KM546.1, Fr-327, S-3631. Fourth laureate head, tie with loop at one end. A vibrant example of this seldom encountered type with luminous golden surfaces and just a bit of auburn tone encircling the legends. The portrait of George is quite bold, with his facial features very slightly, double-struck and the reverse motif of crowned, cruciform shields is extremely pleasant. A lovely mint-state example of this scarce date in the series, highly collectible as such. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $1500 in VF, $3800 in EF, $4750 in UNC.
Estimate: 5000-7000 USD
