Lot 3663
Great Britain. Gold Halfcrown, ND. S.2629; Fr-237. James I, 1603-1625. Mint mark, Crown. In reality much rarer than the gold crown in high grade, this is a sparkling example with an excellent portrait and well defined design. The diminutive gold halfcrown usually has a poorly struck reverse, but this specimen has as sharp a reverse as one could hope for. Original luster still evident on this coin, and interesting centering 'pimple' still clear on the King's cheek. Choice Extremely Fine.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,200.
