GREAT BRITAIN. Pound, 1642. Oxford Mint. Charles I. PCGS Genuine--Tooled, EF Details.
S-2940; N-2398; Brooker-860 (same dies); Morrieson dies-B/2. Declaration type. Weight: 119.09 gms. Obverse: Charles, holding sword and reins, riding horse trotting left; plumes to right, pile of arms below; Reverse: Declaration in two lines between two parallel lines; three plumes above. Despite its details designation, with some scratches in the fields meant to smooth out some roughness, this example nevertheless retains solid overall detail and sports a robust cabinet tone. As evidence of its rather hefty and imposing nature, numerous edge splits are also noted, as the metal itself cracked in a few spots long ago due in large part to its oversized aspect.
