Edward VI Shilling

[The Eidolon]

I think this is my first coin from his reign.
It has some scratches, but I can't be too fussy for this time period if I want anything.

Nice one, @The Eidolon!  His reign is likely to be the toughest of any of the Tudors --I sure don't have anything of his.  And a shilling, no less!  My guess would be that some of the faintness is original; later Tudors and early Stuarts are notorious for weak strikes, especially of the portraits.

That is a fantastic coin! Congrats.

 

I have no Edward VI or V or VIII!

Nice shilling @The Eidolon!

Edward VI remains one of my favorite coinage reigns, but they tend towards the pricey side, so I had to make do with some more modest examples.
