The 1825 Shilling - George IVGeorge IV silver shilling. 90% silver. Second portrait, third reverse. Diameter 23.50mm, weighs 5.65g. SCBC 3812.
1825 was a interesting year for the shilling as there are several variants. This third reverse is a lion standing on a crown. You can find this coin with a Roman I. There is a milled edge proof, which is rare and expensive.
The second reverse was also minted in 1825, which depicts a shield. Again there is a milled edge proof. Even rarer is the 1825/3 (the 5 is over-stamping a 3).
The Reverse, designed by William Wyon, shows a lion standing on a crown.
The Obverse, also designed by William Wyon, shows a portrait of King George IV.Image credit: The Royal Mint
