[QUOTE="PaddyB, post: 1639062, member: 40017"]OK - I thought I would extract an "Evolution of the Bob" series from my collection. By the way - the word in this context is both singular and plural, so you have a bob, or five bob, or ten bob - whatever. [ATTACH]235555.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]235553.vB[/ATTACH] By no means all the possible variations, and not even all the monarchs, but we have: Edward VI from about 1551 (undated) Elizabeth I from 1582/3 James I from 1624 Charles I from 1635/6 Commonwealth Shilling dated 1653 Charles II 1668 James II 1686 William & Mary 1693 William III 1695 Anne 1708 George I 1723 George II younger head 1727 George II Older head 1743 George III 1787 George III New coinage 1817 George IV Laureate head 1825 George IV bare head 1827 William IV 1834 Victoria Young Head 1852 Victoria Jubilee head 1887 Victoria Veiled Head 1897 Edward VII 1905 (very scarce date this one) George V 1911 earlier design George V 1928 later design George VI 1937 Scottish and English reverses Elizabeth II 1965 English and Scottish reverses I could write a book on the subject, so ask if you need to know more![/QUOTE]
