Details
From auction St. Jamess 2, London, May 2005, lot 85. (Note: All six traced specimens are from the same pair of dies. The bust was a prototype for the later 8B, used on the coinage from mintmark woolpack through to mintmark 2, and is similar to the bust on the pattern shillings with mintmark key (see SJA 1, lots 300 and 301).)
