RMW Collection of England and Great Britain 2 2 Entry posted by rmw · December 29, 2017 1,115 views queen anne halfcrown Here is an example of a Queen Anne halfcrown, struck after the Union of Scotland and England. I would rate it as a well struck and attractive AU. 2 2
rmw Posted December 29, 2017 Thanks. There may be better pieces out there ( this is stabbed as an MS 61) but it was picked up at a reasonable price. i don’t think I will bid on the Anne Crown in MS 65 available in the Heritage auction as it is beyond my snack bracket, starting at $20k.

coinsbygary Posted December 29, 2017 This coin is a nice alternative to the MS 65. I think you will be happy owning this well struck and attractive coin. I often buy lower MS graded coins when the gems of that coin are in the stratosphere of my budget. No shame, I'm simply happy to be in the game! Link to comment

World_Coin_Nut Posted January 2, 2018 That's beautiful. I enjoy owning coins in affordable grades when the high grade is out of reach. Sometimes the affordable one looks nicer anyway. Link to comment
rmw Posted January 2, 2018 I doubt that this piece circulated at all but sloshed around in an old time coin cabinet and developed a bit of cabinet friction at the shoulder and high point to the hair on the obverse . Reverse looks Mint or near so. The piece has some lustre going for it as well Link to comment
