1696 Half Crown Attribution

Recommended Posts

I wonder if someone could help with attributing this coin please?

The date is not very clear due to reduction lines but I am 96% sure it is 1696. The regnal year on the edge is OCTAVO.

I'm after the Bull/ESC number, I currently have it as ESC 1071 (532) but that would make it R3 and I want to be sure

Thanks for any help!

Thanks Rob, I did have my doubts, mis-attributed by the very well-known dealer then!

Still R2 though, if you believe in such things!

I don't believe any ESC rarity values
