Great Britain 1670 4 pence

from the Mountain Groan Collection

This type was struck 1670-84 in sufficient quantities that worn specimens are common. Overdates abound but none are noted for this date (unsurprising as this is the inaugural year).

Recorded mintage: unknown but scarce in nice condition.

Specification: silver.

Catalog reference: S-3384, KM 434.
