Description
Alluring Mint State Sovereign of Elizabeth I
Elizabeth I gold "Fine" Sovereign of 30 Shillings ND (1584-1586)
MS62 NGC, Tower mint, Escallop mm, Sixth Issue, S-2529, N-2003
(R). 15.19gm. • ELIZABETH • D' • G' • ANG' • | FRA' • ET • HIB' •
REGINA • (escallop), Elizabeth enthroned facing within tressure,
scepter in right hand, globus in left, portcullis at feet /
(escallop) • A • DNO' • FACTV' • EST • ISTVD ET • EST • MIRAB' • IN
• OCVLIS • NRS' •, royal shield over Tudor rose. Among the most
fervently pursued issues from Elizabeth's prolific reign, and
certainly among the scarcest in any condition, let alone in a Mint
State assignment. Full in both its quality and the impact of its
expression, the advanced visual allure of the current offering
endures, blessed with lemon-gold surfaces and particularly strong
striking details. Most appreciable considering the numerous issues
generally plaguing Tudor coinage, and with only three certified any
finer by NGC, the piece at hand is most certainly deserving of
placement in discerning collection.Metal: Gold
Diameter: 42mm
