Owner Comments:
For the second time in England's numismatic history, joint rulers were featured on the country's coinage (the first being the political union of Philip and Mary 140 years prior). Shillings were only issued for 3 years during William and Mary's joint reign, all of which are scarce. This example interestingly shows an overdate for 1690, a year for which no shillings were issued.
