详细说明

Charles II. Third bust. S-3358. Edge not readable in the slab but "V. QVINTO." Note the thin digits "73" on this coin. The cataloguer is only guessing but has to think that this is the coin prized by the Cheshire collector until he found the 1672 described above. It's also very possible that each coin appealed to him so much that he had to own them both. NGC has graded this crown AU55 but in reality it is virtually identical to the grade of the 1672, only struck differently. It's well balanced and pleasing, with "dark dusty" toning similar to that of the 1672. Ancient luster gleams from beneath the color, producing a stunning appearance! <I>One of the nicest of this bust style in existence.</I> NGC graded AU-55.</B> <BR>Estimated Value $4,500 - 5,000. <I><BR>The Cheshire Collection.</I>
