This specimen was lot 56703 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2024), where it sold for $360. The catalog description[1] noted, "GREAT BRITAIN. 6 Pence, 1607. London Mint; mm: Crown. James I. NGC AU-55." For some reason, the sixpence was the only coin of James I that regularly bore dates. The coronet mintmark shown here appeared 1607-09. The reverse legend, "QUAE·DEVS·CONIVNXIT·NEMO·SEPARET", translates as, "What God hath joined let no man put asunder". This example realized substantially less than the catalog value.
