1711 Queen Anne Silver Shilling – Roses & Plumes Variety. A genuine sterling silver shilling of Queen Anne dated 1711. The reverse displays the crowned cruciform shields of England, Scotland, France and Ireland surrounding the Star of the Order of the Garter, while the obverse bears the draped bust of Queen Anne facing left. This attractive early eighteenth-century silver coin has seen honest circulation yet retains clear legends, a pleasing portrait and well-defined reverse detail. The milled edge, style and strike are entirely consistent with an original Royal Mint issue. A desirable example from the reign of Britain’s last Stuart monarch and a popular addition to any serious collection of British milled silver. Monarch: Queen Anne (1702–1714) Date: 1711 Denomination: Shilling Metal: Sterling Silver (.925) Variety: Roses & Plumes Condition: Fine
