Peck says Very Scarce. Freeman says R8. I say this one's much better than most you'll see.
These are very attractive little coins when they're this good.
I have all sorts of fun collecting Victorian silver by Davies number. There's so much more to find than just doing straight date runs. Seven different types for 1887, for starters.
It's quite easy to find low grade examples of these, but once you start getting up to this level, they are becoming quite serious coins.
The trickiest of the three varieties of the 1889, and if you're going for completion, you've got to have all three. ESC doesn't differentiate the three variants, and refers to all 1889s as Scarce
1871 is rated R in ESC
Rather a gorgeous coin in the hand, this one. Lovely classy little coin.
Scarce
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
What I really like about this area is how the designs on the shilling, florin, and halfcrown relate to one another. Coherent.
