1708E Shilling 3rd bust (E below bust - Edinburgh) Rev. Plain in angles Obv. GRATIA is widely spaced - A to back of Anne's hair bun. This is the other 1708 E bust where the GRATIA is normal spacing (less than the above example). Date: Type H/8 (As per Spink English Silver Coinage) Edinburgh local issue. Z type for 1 & narrower 0 However, in ESC listed as date 8 over 7 - but no so in this example.
*This example has a very unusual die flaw running horizontally from the downward tip at the end of the 7 - across the leg and into the crown - The effect is that the date could now be read as 1408 ! Grade: Fine
