1689 WILLIAM & MARY GOLD ONE GUINEA ELEPHANT AND CASTLE ( VF )

A notable 1689 William & Mary gold guinea bearing the Elephant and Castle privy mark, indicating coins struck from gold sourced through the Royal African Company. This variety is considerably scarcer than standard issues of the year. The piece exhibits very fine condition with sharp striking to both obverse portraits and reverse heraldic detail. The Elephant and Castle mark adds significant numismatic interest, making this an important acquisition for collectors specialising in Stuart gold coinage and trade-related monetary history.
