Comments

Te żetony Banku Anglii zostały wybite w standardowej wadze 227 gramów, składającej się z 202,4 gramów czystego srebra i 24,6 gramów stopu.

Zostały wybite podczas wojen napoleońskich, kiedy Mennica Królewska nie produkowała monet koronnych, ale raczej monety emitowane z upoważnienia Banku Anglii, a zatem technicznie były to żetony, chociaż ich czystość metalu sprawiała, że były akceptowane jako pieniądze. Era oficjalnych obiegowych monet żetonowych, która rozpoczęła się wraz z kontr-znakowaniem hiszpańskich amerykańskich 8 reali, zakończyła się wraz z ostatnią emisją tego typu, gdy zaczęły pojawiać się nowe monety. Czasami ten ostatni typ jest nazywany stylem gołej głowy, ale jak można zauważyć, król nosił laur wokół głowy. Ze względu na rzadkość emisji z 1816 r., Spink Standard Catalogue of British Coins zawiera ostrzeżenie, aby uważać na podróbki.
