H237 HENRY VII Profile Groat (1505-1509) S2258 VF35, original gray tone with a superb EF portrait!  The first evident influence of the Italian Renaissance on official circulating British numismatic portraiture, as the founder of the Tudor dynasty is shown in a realistic profile.  $900
H238 ELIZABETH I Shilling (1560-61) S2555a VF35 once cleaned.  A seldom seen early portrait type with Elizabeth looking more mature than in the far more common type  from this early period in her reign.  The portrait is also far bolder than the more common "girlish" one is usually found. $700
All coins graded by U.S. Photograde standards.  British buyers should note that while the British and American Fine are about the same, the British Very Fine or VF corresponds approximately to the U.S. VF30, and the British Extremely Fine or EF to the U.S. AU50.

H273 HENRY VII Groat (1495-98) S2198A VF25, nice bold portrait and legends,
            clipped around the bottom into the middle of the lettering, as is common
            with these  $175
H240 PHILIP & MARY Penny (1554-1558) S2510a  VG8 A good (and scarce) early
             electrotype COPY.  Appears to be a VF+ coin with weakly struck centers,
             because the legends are mostly very bold,.including the PXM.  $35
H249 ELIZABETH I Shilling (1591-1595) S2577 VF35 a nice original gray with lots
            of portrait detail and two odd features: (1) it is slightly off round with extra
            metal outside the outer border from 7-12 o'clock; (2) the portrait has evidence
            of being slightly double struck as indicated by a second nose and forehead
            just left of the main portrait!   An interesting example of this very desirable
            type!  $550
H283 JAMES I Shilling (1603-1604) S2645 G4  $60
H247 JAMES I Shilling (1603-1605) S2646 G6 likely a ground dug coin $40
H264 JAMES I Shilling (1604-1605) S2654 VF20 with much underlying luster  $350
H275 JAMES I Shilling (1605-1606) S2654 VF30, cleaned and with rough obverse
            surfaces.  Bold details!  $95
H276 JAMES I Shilling (1614-1615). S2654 VF30, clipping and light corrosion evident,
            especially on the obverse.  Still an above average portrait for these!  $125
H282 JAMES I Shilling (1623-1624) S2668 VF30, a good original toned coin  $550
