Description
Glorious Ex-Millennia 2 Guineas of William & Mary
William & Mary gold 2 Guineas 1694/3 MS64 PCGS, KM482.1,
S-3424, Schneider-Unl. An absolutely magnificent representative of
this 2 Guinea issue of William & Mary, unsurprisingly included in
the prestigious Millennia Collection for its stellar visual and
technical appeal. Bordered by finely milled rims, the central
strike superb and rendering both William and Mary's portraits with
meticulous clarity. These remain luxuriously coated in their
original mint frost, creating a mild contrast between them and the
shimmering golden fields in the backdrop, producing an even greater
visual impact than that conferred by the exemplary strike alone.
Faint and isolated marks are noted throughout, though it is
surmisable that these are quite old, with the offering clearly
having been very closely cared for since its likely inclusion in a
series of collections these past 300+ years. Exceeded by no other
examples across either NGC or PCGS, and presenting a captivating
visual image that is likely unchallenged for the issue, this
marvelous 2 Guineas deserves placement in only the finest of
British numismatic cabinets.
Ex. Millennia Collection (Goldberg Auction 46B, May 2008, Lot 344)
Estimate: $80,000 - $100,000.
