This specimen was lot 20146 in Ponterio sale 176 (Chicago, August 2013), where it sold for $35,250. The catalog description[1] noted, "GREAT BRITAIN. James I, 1603-1625. Rose-ryal, ND (1623-24). Lis. Third Coinage. Sharply Struck Third Coinage Rose-ryal S-2632; North-2108; Fr-239; KM-66.2. 193.2 grains. Seated James I holding orb and scepter; intricate field of lis pattern and portcullis at feet. Rv. Square topped quartered shield center, ‘XXX’ above. All within beaded ring with alternating lis-lion-rose emblems. Another beautiful example and perfect for a type set of British gold coinage. Sharply struck on a lovely flan, with only petty striking weakness noted at a very few points; the centers are exceptional. Magnificent, natural deep color. Faint cabinet wear only. An impressive type. Extremely Fine. Ex: Glendining, 1981."
