Reverse; Crowned cruciform shields. Practically mint state with a golden gray tone. Some evidence of flecking in the metal is testimony to the quality of the silver used to produce this large coin. It was made from treasure seized by Admiral Anson during his circumnavigation of the globe 1740-1744, and has the word LIMA below the king's bust celebrates the expedition's successful harassment of the Spanish colonies in the New World. Very scarce in high grades and an attractive and historically important coin. PCGS graded Genuine, About Uncirculated, Details (Cleaning). Estimate Value $2,000 - 2,500
*The captured silver used to make this coin came from booty taken from the Spanish. It was decided that the precious metal would be sent to the Royal Mint to be coined, and it took scores of wagons to transport it all to the Tower. Huge crowds gathered in awe at the spectacle of the captured loot making its way though the streets of London.

* During the war with Napoleonic France, at the turn of the 18th/19th centuries there was a shortage of silver coinage in England. No Crown pieces had been issued for George III and he had occupied the throne since 1760. As an emergency measure Spanish 'Dollars' were put into circulation for a short period after being countermarked in order for them to become currency. It was not until 1816 that the regular coining of Crown pieces was resumed, when the Royal Mint was moved from its old base in the Tower of London to a new site on Tower Hill, London.
