1668 Crown S-3357 MS (PCGS#788484)

May 2005 Pre-Long Beach Auction #31

详细说明: Charles II. Second bust. S-3357. Edge not readable in the slab but "VICESIMO." The consignor has not told us, but this is probably the coin he had to represent the 2nd Bust until he located the marvelous 1664 described above. Of course the regnal edge dating style on this coin also differs from that on the 1664, so it's not technically a duplicate. This coin is exceptionally nice, but in a different league from the 1664. It is pale gray, well struck overall, and enjoys a lack of noticeable abrasions. The Cheshire collector stayed far away from any coins having problems, and none of his coins, of any denomination, has edge problems or major marks. His stress was on finding quality or not having the coin in his collection (the same philosophy which guided Dr Terner in his English gold collection). Although not the finest Charles II crown in this wonderful collection, it is nevertheless exceptional and worthy of lots of strong bids. Rare date! NGC graded AU-50. Estimated Value $4,500 - 5,250. The Cheshire Collection.
