Queen Anne - 1711 Silver Shilling - "Third bust" - SCARCE ISSUE
Sale!
This is a scarce "third bust" type dated 1711. The obverse features the third draped bust of Queen Anne facing left. The distinction between the third and fourth busts lies in Queen Anne’s hairstyle, which might not be evident on worn specimens. Interestingly, there was no second bust minted in 1711, so this coin features the third bust image.
On the reverse is the crowned cruciform shields representing Great Britain, France, and Ireland.
