GREAT BRITAIN. 1/2 Guinea, 1811. London Mint. George III. NGC MS-62. S-3737; Fr-364; KM-651. The most elusive business strike date of this type, and the first time we have ever had the pleasure of offering this date. Brightly lustered with a satiny lemon drop appearance, this examples luster is barely broken by striation or hit. Some strike weakness is seen on the highest elements of the design, particularly within the reverse shield on the crown. A very lovely and wholesome example of a hard to acquire date. <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.
