Sale 31: The Pre-Long Beach Auction May 30 - June 1, 2005
             

             
            Lot 2235Great Britain. Silver Penny, 1694. William & Mary, bust side 
            by side. S-3445. Rare variety with "HI" in place of "HIB" in reverse 
            legend. Very attractive light gray surfaces, well struck for the 
            type. An extremely rare grade for this piece, which is usually 
            missing from Maundy sets as many evidently have been lost over the 
            centuries. We feel our estimate is conservative, as many collectors 
            need this tiny type coin. NGC graded MS-62. 
            Estimated Value $275-350. 

            Provenance: The Cheshire Collection.
             Realized $270
