Offered is an interesting 1879-dated contemporary counterfeit Shilling, as KM#734.2. This base-metal, cast piece bears an engrailed edge, and is slightly more sophisticated than an average fake of this period. We don’t know the exact alloy that this was made from, but weight is very close to a genuine Shilling. A fascinating addition to any ‘black cabinet.’
