GREAT BRITAIN. Sovereign, 1553. London Mint; mm: Pomegranate. Mary. PCGS AU-50.
S-2488; Fr-192; N-1956. Weight: 15.2 gms. An impressive and important hammered gold rarity. Nicely struck and essentially perfectly centered on a fully round flan, we note just a hint of softness at the extreme left of the throne. A very high grade example and the first we have sold since 2018, and this one is fresh to the market, last selling in our (Stack's) December 1992 auction. A highlight of the current offering of coins from the Dr. Michael Vale Collection, and will be an important addition to another outstanding collection of hammered English gold.

From the Dr. Michael Vale Collection.

Ex: Stack's (12/1992) Lot # 3373.

Estimate: €35000 - €40000
