Great Britain
Commonwealth Shilling 1653 XF40 NGC, Tower mint, Sun mm, KM390.1, S-3217. 5.89gm. An impressive rendition of this not always so well minted coinage, noticeable boldness of detail present throughout the stamp, which for its part appears just mildly off-center, though the flan is neither pierced, nor repaired. Light cabinet tone adds to the allure, while some contained areas of doubling are noted, in-line with the usual appearance of the type.
