Description
Charles II Crown 1667, S3357, VF30 PCGS, edge not visible in the slab, normal strike, quite a pleasing example for the grade with handsome light gray surfaces, part of the date somewhat weak from strike, in all quite desirable. The Great Fire swept through London in this year, burning what remained of the wooden medieval city, wiping out the rats which carried the pestilence, and probably (scholars believe) destroying priceless relics such as any manuscripts of Shakespeare stored in attics. Out of the conflagration arose a new city, made of stone, some of its finest buildings the work of Sir Christopher Wren. A historic coin.Metal: Silver
Diameter: 38.61mm
