Description
Charles I of England, Ormonde Crown ND, largest denomination of the Great Rebellion, struck 1643-44, S-6544, VF35 NGC, lightly struck somewhat off center, the crown and denomination sharp, some ancient abrasions, large but rough flan, old gray patina. Issued by the Lords Justice at Dublin to express allegiance to the King of England; in its day, known simply as emergency money, but long collected as Ormonde Money in recognition of the Earl of Ormonde, who was appointed Lieutenant of Ireland in 1643. It stands to reason that this largest coin of the period is often the least well preserved, considering its intended use in wartime.Metal: Silver
