Austrian Netherlands, Escalin/Schelling, 1750 Bruges mint.
Petrus got one in from the Antwerp mint. The Schelling from the Bruges mint is less common and trades at some premium. Originally, the Bruges mint used a lily as its mintmark, but decided to take over the lion mintmark of the Ghent minting workshop after it closed down.

Grotty 1750 British Shilling - poor George looks worn out! These coins had to work hard for a living, as very few shillings were issued in the next reign!

Apologies to those of a sensitive disposition - you may prefer to look aside! This is my ONLY 1747 coin - it's a George II halfpenny that I retrieved from a junk tray sometime in my childhood - I have a feeling the dealer actually gave it to me free of charge. Perhaps a soldier used it as a button during the Napoleonic Wars?

1746 British sixpence, George II, LIMA below bust (this supposedly indicates the coin was struck from bullion captured by Admiral Anson in Peru during his World voyage):
