New Pick up for the Monarch Set

Hello Everyone! I don't get to upgrade this set often. I am really nearing the max I can manage to afford but I did pick up a pretty big upgrade recently!
Video here:
My current example is an AU55. Would love to hear thoughts on condition. I have only seen the listing photo and the video so I am up in the air on it myself. My guess is AU58 with a shot at 62. It looks somewhat rubby to me but the luster is quite nice.
For the rest of my set you can see it here:

That’s just beautiful! You whole set is fantastic! Will you be selling the dupe?
I'm BACK!!! Used to be Billet7 on the old forum.
Congrats- well played and that one is about as good as it gets for the date.
Decent W&M shillings are tough... I still don't own one.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Congrats, that's a really nice coin. Just curious but what did the seller grade it?

Yes. Dupes are a big part of affording the upgrades. Often I have them sold to someone almost immediately after a new purchase.

Wow- impressive Wm & Mary! I’ve had a halfcrown and an Irish coin with the conjoined busts, but both were low grade. Nothing like that.
