<p>[QUOTE="7Jags, post: 4585204, member: 78719"]Well, excellent tries. This coin was purchased 5/6 years ago from Mark Rasmussen List. It is a pattern of the Royal Mint and in fact is a pattern for the legend on the obverse - rather block-like font lettering that is quite similar to that on the pattern 1950 Four Shillings piece. The area of "rubbed" metal to the right of KG6 bust is likely an etched control number and was done by the Royal Mint.</p><p>I know, not that exciting, but late date pattern crowns of any sort are rather rare.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
