1791 GEORGE III PATTERN GUINEA – R7 rarity

1791 GEORGE III PATTERN GUINEA – R7 rarity

Our research into this Pattern has indicated that this rare Guinea is in fact unique, thus of the highest rarity.  Normally such an exquisite piece would only be found in a Museum but fortunately this coin was privately acquired some time ago and has resided in a collector’s cabinet until now.

Struck by Conrad H. Kuchler the coins reverse decipts a crowned spade shaped shield within raised border. Struck in error from an unfinished punch with designs in first, third and fourth quarters facing the opposite direction.

A truly fascinating coin, offering museum quality and rarity.
