This specimen was lot 43139 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2019), where it sold for $720. The catalog description[1] noted, "GREAT BRITAIN. Shilling, 1849. PCGS MS-65 Gold Shield. Sharply struck with lovely iridescent tone, soft satin luster and excellent eye appeal." This type was struck 1838-66 in large quantities with a slightly modified obverse continuing until 1887. Altho this is a low mintage date, it obtains little premium.
Recorded mintage: 645,000.
Specification: 5.65 g, .925 fine silver, .168 troy oz AGW.
Catalog reference: S-3904; KM-734.1.
