William III 1695 Shilling / Guinea Mule - Contemporary Counterfeit

  • Sale
  • Regular price £175.00


24mm. 10.30g. Tested to around 95% silver.

An unusual fantasy piece that appears to be mule between the obverse used for the Shilling, combined with the reverse used for the Guinea.

Struck on a thick flan and with crudely engraved edge milling. Gilt, to give the impression of gold.

A most curios piece, clearly of some real age and generally with good details.
