James I beyond North & ‘Spink’?

Recommended Posts

I’m beginning to take an interest in James I coinage…are there any core texts outside of the BNJ, North, ‘Spink’ etc.?

I was disappointingly underbidder on this eBay shilling recently, thinking £350 was a strong enough snipe :(

I can't help you with the texts beyond those you have mentioned, but just for interest here is my James I sixpence. It holds my space for that monarch as the best bust I have had, even though the edge is rather irregular.

I believe S2670, 1623, MM Lis:

Thanks, Paddy, no worries :)

Nice sixpence, and on the money with your classification.
