Description

William & Mary gold 5 Guineas 1694 XF45 NGC, KM479.1, S-3422, SEXTO edge. A large and pleasing gold offering from the final year of the joint reign of William III and Mary II. Especially attractive for the certified grade, and although engraved in low relief, the ever-popular dual portraits show solely unobtrusive contact marks and very little actual wear. Indeed, if one looks past the slight weakness in the centers, the coin itself is remarkably attractive and well-preserved; the detail on William's hair and in the peripheries is exquisite, luster gleams in the legends, and the entire aged-gold planchet is illuminated by a beautiful light red tone. Immensely visually satisfying and with no edge knocks common for this heavy type, an overall superb offering.
