            James I. Third coinage (1619-25). Mintmark, lis. Laureate armored 
            bust left, value behind. Reverse: Long cross over square shield. A 
            well struck coin, unusually well centered. So unusually sharply 
            struck is the portrait that one could conclude that the coin is a 
            piece of finer workmanship or a 'presentation piece'. An 
            irreplaceable rarity. NGC graded MS-63. 
            Estimated Value $3,500-4,500. 

            Provenance: The Cheshire Collection.
