George I (1714-27), Shilling, 1716, rev. nine strings to harp (ESC 1562 [R3] {1163}; S.3645), toned, very fine, very rare thus.
provenance
H Samuel, Spink 109, 4 July 1995, lot 404 - £190
Note: Although Bull records '8 strings' in his revised ESC corpus, the cataloguer determines this to be a simple clerical error, for comparison study against the half-dozen examples to have appeared at auction in the last two decades indicates nine strings to be the most typically found variety for date
Estimate: £300 - £400
