If it were Elizabeth I, we wouldn't even be able to talk about the Commonwealth of England yet! :)
Wow, that one made even me stand up and look! Beautiful!
There has been developed, I believe, a rough chronology of these pieces by use of die varieties. Even if you attributed it, though, I doubt it...
