Description

Edward IV (First Reign, 1461-70) gold Ryal ND (1464-70) MS62 NGC, Light coinage, 7.66g, Long cross fitcheé mm. S-1950, N-1549. Coronet mm. Crowned king with sword and shield standing facing in ship, Є in banner at stern, large rose on hull / Rose in radiant sun over floriate cross, crowns and lions in angles, small trefoils in spandrels. Absolutely exquisite! Medieval gold rarely appears as nice as the present specimen, and it is incredible that it has managed to survive the last 550 years in as premium a grade. Besides some peripheral weakness to the obverse legends the strike is pristine and from fresh, rust-free dies; the surfaces are simply aglow with luster, giving the coin an ethereal appearance. An-all round stunner, sure to entice grade-conscious collectors of British hammered gold.
