Lot 2086
Great Britain. Two Guinea, 1676. S.3335; Fr-284; KM-443.1. Charles II. Second laureate bust right, with rounded truncation. CAROLVS.II.DEI.GRATIA. Reverse Inverted die axis crowned cruciform shields. Interlinked C's in center, date at top. MAG.BR.ET.HIB.REX. Edge obliquely grained. This is an exceptional coin - fully struck up, no weakness and with attractive red tone and full underlying luster. Although this is not a specimen striking it is all the more remarkable as a currency piece which has escaped the problems of poor production normally associated with circulation gold coins of this period. NGC graded AU-58.
Estimated Value $15,000 - 18,000.
