HKMAL collection
Elizabeth I (1558-1603), Shilling, n.d (1594-1596), 5th issue. Obv. Legend: ELIZAB DG ANG FR ET HIB REGI (Elizabeth by the grace of God Queen of England France and Ireland). Rev. Legend: POSUI DEU ADIVTOREM MEU (I have made God my helper). This specimen is double struck especially on reverse. Most milled shillings appear to have been weakly struck, particularly obverse portrait. Specimens with VF to EF condition are quite rare and desirable. For detail, see my blog article 52.
