Product Details
Charles I Gold Crown, Tower Mint under Parliament, 1644-45 This scarce gold Crown was struck at the Tower Mint under Parliamentary control during the English Civil War. Key features include: Minted in 22 carat "crown" gold Weight: 2.16g Group D, fourth crowned bust left, class I, bust 5 Initial mark (R) on both sides, dating it to 1644-45 Obverse legend: CAROLVS. D'. G'. MAG'. BRI'. FR'. ET. HI'. REX Reverse: Crowned quartered oval shield of arms, crowned C and R flanking Reverse legend: CVLTORES. SVI. DEVS. PROTEGIT The obverse translates to "Charles by the grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland," while the reverse means "God protects his worshippers." This specimen has been graded XF40 by NGC, making it one of only two examples graded by NGC as of September 2022, with none at PCGS. This underscores its extreme rarity and historical significance. The combined pyx trial records for the (R) and earlier (P) mint marks reveal a highly limited gold output of £135,315 between May 1643 and May 1645. This restricted production further emphasizes the coin's scarcity. The coin exhibits some toning, light creasing, and surface wear, consistent with its age and grade. Despite these characteristics, it remains an invaluable piece for collectors of English Civil War coinage. NGC Certification 2124443-009 Provenance: Previously part of Dr. Rolf Baumhauer's British gold Collection, sold at Sincona, Zurich, Auction 75, on May 16, 2022.
