Owner Comments:

This is the only mint state coin in my Charles III Pillar set. My collection has been built with the goal of showcasing a wide variety of the scarce examples, at whatever grade I can find, and I am grateful that it received NGC's recognition with a Best Classic Set award in 2019 despite the lack of high grade examples.

From the Heritage Ancient & World Coin Signature Auction, January 5-6, 2013, New York. Lot #22301. KM105, "Tip of the cross points between the H and I, a lovely original piece with aged gray and gold patina."
