1690 6/5 NGC VF 20 William Mary 4 Pence Groat Great Britain England Mint Error Coin (21100602C)

Regular price $325.00

  • Very Fine William & Mary England (Great Britain) silver 4 pence or groat sterling silver coin.
  • Very rare date mint error variety where the "6" is a correction punched over a "5" erroneously installed by the die sinker. The lower curvature of the 5 can be seen within the circle on the 6.
  • This should not be confused with an overdate which is an intentional effort to modify a date, such as 1691 over 1690, to preserve the usefulness of the die.
  • Certified by NGC to VF 20, Population Census: This coin, only 3 higher.
  • Lightly toned with nice portraits of the Royal couple.
  • Catalog: English Silver Coins: 1869A rated as Rare.
  • An interesting variation in obverse & reverse legend font size is noted.
