Owner Comments:
The 1723 shilling is by far the most common of the George I shillings as a result of the significant amount of silver being supplied to the mint by the South Seas Company. The shillings with silver provenances of roses (west England), plumes (Wales), roses & plumes (Company for melting down lead) or WCC (Welsh Copper Co.) are much scarcer.
