Description
George IV Shilling 1825, S3812, Bare Head, Arabic 1, MS65 PCGS, a handsome Gem Uncirculated shilling, bold strike showing all details of the tiny lion face, crown, and the portrait as well, virtually perfect surfaces, and premium mauve-gray toning with bright hues of blue iridescence. Premium quality. The cataloguer is surprised that the slab grade is not even higher. Value is modest for the quality, for in England a 63-ish coin, uncertified, would cost about $500 in equivalent funds. By rights a coin such as this should be worth multiples of catalogue, but the market for quality milled coins remains in its infancy. Excellent value here.From the Exeter College Collection
