Description
Exuberant Top Pop "E&C" Guinea
James II gold "Elephant & Castle" Guinea 1688 MS62 NGC,
KM459.1, S-3403, Farey-305 (Very Rare). Seldom-seen at the Guinea
denomination for this "Elephant & Castle" type, with the vast
majority of those of any gold denomination of the date lacking this
diminutive and instantly recognizable mintmark. In dashing
appearance, we have a Top Pop example that caps out the conditional
appearance for the type, well struck up and wearing blooming, cool
gold surfaces. With only two others gracing this lofty census
position, including the ex. Millennia example we offered in 2024
that generated a bid of $43,200, we expect an elevated response by
the discerning Guinea collector.Metal: Gold
Diameter: 25mm
Weight: 8.35g
AGW: 0.2462oz
