PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 04/12/2020 04:40 am Very nice coin! Mintmark is the Woolpack, dating it to 1594-96. Sixth issue shilling, S2577 in the Spink book. The book suggests £100 in F and £450 in VF. I would grade yours somewhere between, towards the top end - the portrait is excellent for an QE1 shilling, but there is some flattening to the devices on the reverse and around the edges.

Safaga Valued Member United States 191 Posts	Posted 04/12/2020 12:32 pm I really like the portrait. As DavidUK says, many of the portraits disappear. Unfortunately all my Elizabeth I coins have weak portraits. Report this Post to the Staff
