GREAT BRITAIN. Guinea, 1774. London Mint. George III. NGC PROOF-64 Cameo. S-3728; Fr-355; KM-604; WR-95 (R). By Thomas Pingo. A masterwork of skilled engraving, this Guinea demonstrates an artful and distinguished bust of George III that displays the king in his full royal splendor. Fully deserving of the Cameo designation, this Guinea is deeply mirrored in the fields, allowing one to peer deep into themselves, and the devices are lightly frosted. A single hit on the neck likely prevents a higher Gem designation, but even as such, this example leaves little to be desired in the way of attractivity. <strong>To view all items from the Augustana Collection, click <a href="https://auctions.stacksbowers.com/lots?sort=auction_date_lot_number_asc&search=the+Augustana+Collection&limit=36&lots_range=upcoming"> here.</a></strong> From the Augustana Collection.
