This specimen was lot 31646 in Heritage sale 3064 (Chicago, April 2018), where it sold for $2,160. The catalog description[1] noted, "James VI gold Unite ND (1609-25) AU Details (Repaired) NGC, Tenth coinage. An attractive and presentable example of this large gold issue, James's portrait especially clear and bold for the typically soft strike. The legends are slightly double-struck but generally prominent, the designs sharp, the overall appearance a strong representative of the Scottish Unite series with little evidence of repair marring the surface. From the Collection of A Scottish Gentleman." The coinage of Scotland prior to unification with England is confusing. Bullion was scarce, so issues were small and sporadic. Pence and shillings were used but were not worth their English equivalents.
Reported Mintage: unknown.
Specification: 9 g, 0.917 fine gold.
Catalog reference: Fr-48, KM 29, S-5464.
