This coin has an unabbreviated "Elizabeth", which leads me to conclude that it's an early date. However, notice that the "A" in the name is missing.

Apparently engravers were given the latitude to make omissions if they couldn't make everything fit. I don't know if there are any other coins like mine out there among the many variations, so I thought I would post it.
