Kafka Valued Member Canada 352 Posts	Posted 06/24/2014 5:17 pm Any idea what this coin is? It also seems like an error coin, off-center. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

Kefiroth Pillar of the Community United States 1431 Posts	Posted 06/24/2014 6:07 pm Depending on the size, it is either a Sixpence or Shilling of Queen Anne, dated 1708. The E* below the bust indicates it was struck at Edinburgh. Grade is somewhere below Fine. Slightly off-center. Sixpence should be 21mm in diameter, while Shillings will be 26 mm.

Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 06/24/2014 6:11 pm Not my area of expertise, so all I can contribute is that the depiction is, I believe, of Queen Anne, which ought to make the coin's date 1708. Edit: I see Kefiroth got in ahead of me on this, with more info as well.... Colligo ergo sum Edited by Lucky Cuss 06/24/2014 8:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
