Description:
Much as struck with excellent surfaces which still retain lustre. An unbelievable survivor of a notoriously difficult type to obtain in a high numerical grade. This debased silver Testoon exhibits typical striking cracks and is well struck for issue. Displaying the classic Holbein portrait and a detailed and defined Tudor rose to reverse.
The largest portrait for Henry VIII ever portrayed on a coin.
