A probably Modern copy of a Post Medieval silver coin; a shilling of Edward IV, third period (AD 1550 - 1553). Only about a third of the coin survives. Where is is broken, two layers of metal can be seen, suggesting the coin was made in two parts. The silver on the face of the coin is also laminating in places, perhaps suggesting it is a plated copy. The field of the coin is also textured, often a sign of a copy. The coin is imitating a fine silver shilling. Compare North number 1937 on page 123 of Volume II. The coin is 30.6mm long, 18.7mm wide and 1.1mm thick. 2.6g.

A Post Medieval copy of a base silver shilling of Elizabeth I, issued in Ireland. Third (base) coinage, c. AD 1601-1602. Mint mark illegible. Obverse depicts a square-topped royal shield; reverse depicts a crowned harp. Both legends illegible due to severe breakage and wear. Cf. Spink 2003, 'Coins of Scotland, Ireland and the Islands', p. 152, no. 6507. Although this series is composed of base silver, in addition to the base silver it is possible to see a copper-alloy core to this coin, suggesting perhaps that this should be considered a contemporary copy of an already base issue.

Post medieval contemporary copy of a shilling of Charles I (1625-1649). The reverse and initial mark, (R), suggest it is copying a Group F coin dating to 1644-1645 AD. However the obverse portrait appears closer to goup D which was not used with this reverse design and the crude indented lines at the front of the robe do not fall as they would on the real design and also suggest a copy. The coin appears to has a silver enriched surface which has worn away from the more base silver core. This could be achieved by making a base silver flan then leaching the copper from the surface usi…
