详细说明

S.3350. Charles II, 1660-1685. Draped and laureate bust of King facing right. Rose below. <I>Reverse:</I> Crowned cruciform shields. Interlinked C's in angles. Edge has basic legend: DECVS ET TVTAMEN (An Ornament and a Safeguard) without date. This is a simply magnificent example of one of the first 'Restoration' Crowns. The early Charles II 'fine shilling pieces' were struck in low relief and it is unusual to fine a currency specimen in a higher grade than VF. Current catalogue price in XF is &pound;3650 (around $6700). Considerably nicer than the Spin catalogue plate coin, and one of the most attractive examples to be offered in the marketplace for many years. NGC graded AU-53.</B> <BR>Estimated Value $5,400 - 6,000.
