1547-53 Great Britain Edward VI Silver Shilling – VF
Attractive shilling of Edward IV son of Henry VIII, the boy king becoming a king at the age of nine upon the death of his father, a Regency was created dominated by nobles using the Regency to strengthen their own positions.
His reign was cut short resulting in not that much coinage being produced. This is a fantastic example of a fine silver Shilling of his reign.
Well centred, naturally toned with a bold portrait of the young monarch.
Graded as Very Fine and better than a lot of examples that arrive on the market.
