NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17970 Posts	Posted 03/20/2014 04:21 am I suppose it was a fairly short reign, there were no copper coins (apart from the very rare farthing that most experts consider is a pattern), and silver and gold coins were probably minted in lower quantities as the Great Recoinage of 1696-1698 had just taken place, with very large numbers of William III silver coins issued to replace the last of the old hammered coins.

This looks like a decent coin and I'm pleased with it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/QUEEN-ANNE-...p=true&rt=nc Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
