Description
1783 Chalmers Shilling, XF40
Short Worm, W-1785
1783 Chalmers Short Worm Shilling, Breen-1011, W-1785, High R.4,
XF40 PCGS. Two birds compete for the same worm (or serpent),
which is visibly shorter than the one seen on the Long Worm
variant. The Chalmers pieces were struck in various silver
denominations, the work of Annapolis, Maryland silversmith, John
Chalmers. The Chalmers coinage is elusive today and often shows
areas of weakness on some of the motifs. This XF Short Worm
shilling weakens at the centers toward the adjacent margin. Other
areas are sharp for the assigned grade. Listed on page 20 of the
2026 Guide Book. PCGS Population: 19 in 40, 21 finer
(3/26).From The Alamo Collection of U.S. Colonial Issues.
