Born in the Netherlands, King William, known as William of Orange, was sovereign Prince of Orange from birth. Queen Mary was the eldest daughter of the Duke of York, future King James II & VII, and Anne Hyde. With the removal of James II in the Glorious Revolution of 1688, his daughter Mary and her husband Prince William of Orange rules as co-monarchs.First minted on the 6th of February 1663, under the reign of King Charles II, the guinea was a British coin originally equivalent to one pound sterling. Although not the official name for the coin, this term 'guinea' was affectionately adopted as most of the gold used in these coins came from the region in West Africa. The guinea would be in circulation from the reign of King Charles II to King George III, from 1663 – 1814, a total of 151 years.In The Great Recoinage of 1816, the guinea was replaced by the pound as the major unit of currency however long after the guinea ceased to circulate, it is still prominent in the world today. Luxury items such as land, art, horses and professional fees including horse and greyhound racing were often quoted in Guineas up until decimalisation in 1971.Present day usage of the guinea is mainly associated with horseracing. Bids for racehorses at auction are still made in guineas to the present day. This means that the buyer will pay the guinea equivalent amount for the horse and the seller will receive that figure in pounds. The difference of 5p in each guinea is traditionally the auctioneers commission. Many major horse races in Great Britain, New Zealand, Canada and other countries bear names ending in ‘guineas’.No previous signs of mounting. No grade available. Has been handled - scratches, nicks and marks visible. Please see photos.

THE QUEEN VICTORIA GOLDEN JUBILEE 1887 GOLD AND SILVER COIN SET,comprising gold sovereign and half sovereign, along with eight silver coins including the rare double florin, known as the 'Barmaid's Curse', withdrawn issue silver sixpence and replacement issue silver sixpence, in box, with certificate of authenticityProvenance: A Private Scottish Collection.The silver double florin is the shortest lived silver coin in Great Britain's history. First struck in 1887 and minted over the course of only four years, the double florin posed some problems and earned its nickname the 'Barmaid's Curse'. The silver crown was worth 20% more than the double florin however there was only a 3mm difference in size between them making it difficult to distinguish which coin had been handed over the bar in a dark tavern. Due to their unpopularity, they ceased production in 1890.
