Offered is a splendid 1858 sterling silver Shilling, issued under the reign of Queen Victoria, KM#734, SP#3904. This brilliant, uncirculated example remains above average, even among as-struck examples owing to its quality of strike, resulting in PL devices against lovely, satiny fields. Of further interest is that at the top of the reverse, there is a bold die clash displaying the lower part of Her Majesty’s portrait. A silky patina of golds and russets rounds out this exceptional piece.
