1748 Two Guinea – King George II – MGC Graded AU-50

A rare and regal treasure from the Georgian era, this 1748 Two Guinea Gold Coin was struck during the reign of King George II, offering a stunning glimpse into Britain’s 18th-century monetary history. Larger and far scarcer than its single guinea counterpart, the two guinea was reserved for high-value transactions and reflects the wealth and prestige of its time.

The obverse features a finely detailed laureate bust of George II, while the reverse bears the cruciform crowned shields of the Royal Arms, representing England, Scotland, Ireland, and France — a design synonymous with power and heritage.

Graded AU-50 (About Uncirculated) by Majesty Grading Company (MGC), this exceptional coin displays strong detail and luster, with only light friction on the highest points. The surfaces are well-preserved for a coin of this age, with natural golden tones and clean fields, making it an ideal addition to any advanced British gold collection.
