ST 1847 Af - Obv.1 (F: D: type - Af) Rev. Left tie ribbon and wreath stalk fully struck * Date: All numerals - Large. The 8 is over an 8 (slightly to the left) Grade: Choice Slightly prooflike field pAS Deep tone * I have only ever had four examples of this extremely rare date and as I did not take much notice, previously, I cannot determine how many had full or part left tie ribbon & wreath stalk. See 1846 part left ribbon & wreath stalk. At least two other 1847, that I have the scan of had full left ribbon, etc. At present I have three examples in stock and this example has the normal (FULL) tie ribbon at the left side and full length wreath stalk. I feel that this coin is possibly - ex-Maundy ! Maundy mintage: 4,488 Whether it is Ex-Maundy or currency it is still extremely rare and highly collectable !
