| Lot description: Great Britain James I (1603-1625) gold Laurel ND (1619-1620) MS61 PCGS, Tower mint, Spur Rowel mm, Third Coinage, S-2637, N-2111 (R). 8.98gm. First bust. A minimally available type featuring the first, larger bust of James's iconic Laurel coinage. Much scarcer than the second through fourth bust types as confirmed by the paucity of auction records, especially in comparable conditions, with this being only the second example we've yet handled in as many decades. Despite light doubling as is typical for these hammered types, the portrait and legends remain fully appreciable and legible. Only ten of this type have submitted to either grading service, half of which being impaired examples, with our current representative the sole finest, making it a prime target for the British specialist. https://coins.ha.com/itm/great-britain/great-britain-james-i-1603-1625-gold-laurel-nd-1619-1620-ms61-pcgs-/a/3113-31147.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchives-WorldCoins-3113-01082024 HID02906262019 © 2023 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved Estimate: 10000-12000 USD |  |
