Lot 2075
Great Britain. Unite, ND. S.2685; Fr-246. Charles I, 1625-1649. Tower mint under the King. Mint mark, Lis. First bust with ruff and collar of order, high double crown. Reads MAG BR FR ET HI. Reverse Crowned square topped garnished shield. Interesting double striking - especially on the reverse of the coin - demonstrating that the coin probably turned in the die. This may explain the irregular shape of the flan and the excess metal to the right of the obverse. A nice color and a good portrait on this Charles I gold coin. Struck in the first year of his reign. NGC graded EF-40.
Estimated Value $2,400 - 2,700.
