Watch List notes:

Charles I (1625‑49), Penny, Exeter mint, 1644, mintmark rose, crowned bust left within beaded linear circle, mark of value behind 'I', legend surrounds. Rev, rose at centre, reads THRO IVS FIRMAT 1644, 0.51g (S.3092; N.2583; JGB.1075; Besly A1). Set out on an irregular flan, normal for the issue, the portrait of the highest quality, legends clear in the main. Extremely fine for type, very if not extremely rare, seldom appearing at auction or within dealers trays. An important coin for the Exeter mint enthusiast, equally essential to the dedicated Charles I collector.
