  Rare Books

  Silver coin; Denomination: Crown; Royal Mint, London;Queen Anne (1702-1714); In 1707 the Act of the Union was passed joining England and Scotland into a single realm, this coin was struck after that so the arms of England and Scotland are halved within a shield and repeated twice. Before the Union each set of arms occupied its own shield. The legend on the coin reads as a single title from front to back, it translates as 'Anne by the Grace of God Queen of Great Britain, France and Ireland". The reverse has roses and plumes between the shields, this indicates that the silver used in this coin was supplied by mines in the West of England and Wales.
