Odmiany awersu i rewersu:
KM#607.1, Sp#3743 (1787) Brak półkola serc w tarczy hanowerskiej;
KM#607.1, Sp#3744 (1787) Brak półokręgu serc, brak stopu nad głową;
KM#607.1, Sp#3745 (1787) Brak półkola serc, brak ograniczników przy dacie;
KM#607.1 Sp#3745A (1787) Brak półokręgu serc, brak ograniczników na awersie;
KM#607.2, Sp#3746 (1787) Z półpierścieniem serc w tarczy hanowerskiej;
KM#607.3, Sp#3747 (1798) Z półpierścieniem serc, bez ogranicznika nad głową;

KM#607.3, Sp#3747 wybity w 1798 roku jest znany jako szyling Dorriena i Magensa. Kilku londyńskich bankierów nabyło srebro o wartości około 30000 funtów, które zostało wysłane do mennicy w celu wybicia. Niestety, Lordowie Komitetu w Radzie uznali monety za nielegalne, a zdecydowana większość z nich została przetopiona. Jeden z banków nosił wspaniałą nazwę "Messrs Dorrien, Magens, Mello, Martin and Harrison". Wydaje się, że rząd obawiał się, że emisja pobudzi popyt na więcej monet, którego nie byłby w stanie zaspokoić, ponieważ cena srebra była bardzo wysoka. Dziś wiadomo, że istnieje mniej niż 20 sztuk.

Ten typ jest jedną z australijskich monet proklamacyjnych z 1800 roku. W 1800 roku ówczesny gubernator Nowej Południowej Walii, Philip Gidley King, wydał proklamację, zgodnie z którą dziesięć określonych monet brytyjskich, holenderskich, indyjskich, portugalskich i hiszpańskich miało zostać sprowadzonych do kolonii i otrzymać zawyżone nominały niż te wskazane na monetach, tak aby znalazły się w obiegu w kolonii. Szyling miał wartość 1 szylinga i 1 pensa.
