Owner Comments:
In sharp contrast to the other coins issued during the English Commonwealth (1649-1660), the coins bearing Oliver Cromwell's portrait are of a superior quality as a result of production using machine presses. Silver crowns, half crowns, shillings and sixpences were produced, mostly dated 1658. All denominations are scarce and the sixpences are extremely rare.
