Thistle Bank Counterstamped 4 Shillings & 9 Pence ND (1811) XF45 PCGS, KM-CC49, Manville-46. Counterstruck (XF Details) on a 1761-Mo MM 8 Reales of Charles III. A choice example of this rare issue with neatly applied countermarks in circular indents, each well centered upon the host coin. The host coin itself has been well struck, bearing an appealing golden gray patina with charcoal tone forming in the peripheries. This specimen is the earliest date recorded of a host coin overstruck by the Thistle Bank of Glasgow, founded in 1761. Very rare in this outstanding state of preservation, we last handled this coin in January 2014 at our New York sale where it realized $7,000 hammer.
