English Coins : Auction 178 : Lot 1345

Date Sold	Category	Lot	Description	Sale Price
04/09/2022 Auction 178	English Coins	Lot 1345	Five Guineas 1701 Fine Work S.3456 with an edge crack at 7 o'clock on the obverse, VF with traces of expert edge repair on the IM of DECIMO and the IM of SEPTIMO so perhaps ex-jewellery, however the coin's surfaces show no evidence of being in jewellery. An impressive and imposing issue, the Fine Work Five Guineas was a highly important coin in the history of the milled coinage, it introduced more intricate detail and a superb sharp striking to the portrait, marking a significant advance to the quality of minting at the time, leading to further higher relief designs being produced in the 18th Century, right up to the introduction of the later machine-made milled coinage More coins like this	£7,000
