Lot 3660
Great Britain. Gold Double Crown, ND. S.2622; Fr-236. James I, 1603-1625. Second coinage (1604-18). Fourth bust. Mint mark grapes. Struck in 1607. Crowned bust of King facing right. Reverse: Crowned shield with I R (Iacobvs Rex) at sides. A superbly round piece with all lettering well struck up and a very good portrait. This has the overall appearance of a specially produced or 'presentation' piece, although it probably is not. The catalogue price of £750 (around $1400) in Very Fine is probably quite accurate, but there is no catalogue price for the higher grades. NGC graded AU-50.
Estimated Value $2,400 - 2,700.
