Issued for Malta as their "grano" was 3 to a farthing. Allow me to demonstrate the elegance of predecimal maths: there's 3 of these to a farthing, so 12 to a penny. Thus, there's 144 to a shilling, and 2,880 to the pound. There were 576,000 pieces minted = £200 on the nail. Scarce date
These are very attractive little coins when they're this good.
Lovely mature lustre and very little wear to speak of. Top quality material I think you'll agree.
Peck says Very Scarce. Freeman says R8. I say this one's much better than most you'll see.
Normally these are around the gFine level, but this one is a solid grade, and it's one of the best I've had. Strictly speaking, it's a die flaw, rather than a bona fide variety but once these things are in the reference books, they become a must-have for the completist.
