The 1593 Sixpence - Elizabeth ICoinage of Queen Elizabeth I is interesting, attractive and affordable to many. There are many variations to the obverse and reverse, including many mintmarks.
This is an example of an Elizabethan sixpence but if you are considering paying serious money you should look to a specialist dealer to help you through the finer points. The coin shown may cost about £150 but there are worn specimens less than £40.
The Reverse shows a quartered shield of arms with the Cross Fourchee.
The Obverse shows a portrait of Queen Elizabeth I facing left, wearing crown and ruff, with rose behind.The Rose to the right of the Queen's head is to help tell the difference between a sixpence and a shilling (which doesn't have a rose).
