Anne (1702-1714), Post-Union, Halfcrown, 1714 over 3, DECIMO TERTIO, second draped bust left, rev. crowned shields cruciform, roses and plumes in angles, seven strings to harp, lettered edge downwards, 14.88g, 7h (Bull 1378 [R4] but seven strings not noted; ESC 585A; Spink 3607), heavy adjustment marks on portrait and Garter star, otherwise a handsomely full flan, with a rich cabinet tone, almost very fine, presumed very rare

Bull notes the overdate as difficult to discern. However close inspection below the cross bar of the four reveals a clear and unmistakeable curling upstroke - evidently the base of the underlying 3.
