1687 James II Gold Five Guineas
Our photographs show a James II gold 5 guineas of 1687. This is the second bust type, Spink # 3379A,
Although we have shown it as graded VF / good VF, the more we look at it, the more we think it should be graded as about EF (XF), we tend to try to grade slightly conservatively If this coin were offered on eBay, it would probably be described as somewhere between good EF to cameo gem BU with full lustre, possibly proof, although perhaps we are exaggerating slightly!
Our resident photographer has re-touched the images, so please contact us for unre-touched versions if you are thinking about buying.
