King William III and Queen Mary II went down in history as the only monarchs to enjoy a joint rule. In 1689, the pair were invited to invade England and take the throne from King James II, Mary's father – many were annoyed by his Catholic beliefs and feared his new Catholic son would become the next Catholic king. The couple invaded, forcing James to flee to France, and decided to take the throne together. Their reign was pivotal in several ways: it saw the passing of the Toleration Act, the Bill of Rights introduced and Bank of England created. Mary died of smallpox in 1694, followed by William in 1702 after a fall from his horse.

Yes, and we guarantee it. We are a member of the BNTA (The British Numismatic Trade Association) and all our coins are checked for their authenticity.
Although collectors and investors often worry about counterfeits, it's actually very hard to convincingly fake a gold coin. Gold is extremely dense and to use another metal and gold-plate it would result in a coin that is under-weight, over-diameter or half-again as thick, something that would be spotted very easily by an expert. You can buy from us 100% worry free.
