■ Highlights

Rarity
Only 5 coins certified by PCGS and 12 coins by NGC!

The Guinea gold coins are among the most sought-after antique coins, first minted in 1663 in England using gold sourced from Guinea, hence the denomination's name.

Among these, the George I 5 Guinea coin stands out as one of the rarest.

Between 1716 and 1726, George I’s 5 Guinea coins were issued only four times. Consequently, they are virtually never seen on the market, making them a coveted gem among collectors.

Condition
Ranked as the 2nd highest by PCGS, with only two coins graded higher.
Despite being over 300 years old, this coin retains an AU (Almost Uncirculated) grade, showcasing its excellent preservation.

Market Appeal
British coins are a staple of the antique coin market, and Guinea gold coins remain a standout due to their enduring rarity and value. Recent price surges further underscore their popularity.

The George I 5 Guinea coin is exceptionally scarce, rarely appearing in the market. When it does surface at auctions, it garners significant attention and commands high prices.

In addition to their rarity and artistic value, large gold coins like this have seen increased demand due to rising gold prices, with their bullion weight adding intrinsic value. These factors contribute to their consistently high market prices globally.
