Oh, and welcome to A2K!

Thank you for your help it is much appreciated. Confimed that the coins are infact shillings, the history is fascinating, thanks for the sites.

Always interesting to have a hunt about for some strange coin you've found, and you just never know what kind of treasure it is. That you enjoy reading the history of it alone is a great thing.

As with any coinage, it all depends on the quality of your piece to see if it is of any value. Please also note, you will keep the value up by not cleaning it and by handling it with gloves.


Found this coin era in a few places and you can see the difference in visual clarity of the strike thats left after all these years:
