James II 1687 Silver Halfcrown - TERTIO / First Bust
Offered is a handsome 1687 Halfcrown, issued during the 3 reginal (TERTIO) year of King James II, and featuring his 1st bust, KM#452. Although a circulated example, this piece retains just enough detail to make it solidly collectable, a point aided by its very appealing gunmetal grey patina. A tough issue owing to its brevity, and the ensuing civil war / post-war iconoclasm.
