The 1887 shilling is the commonest of the Jubilee head shillings as it was the first year of issue and many were put aside as souvenirs. The lower one is in much better condition than the other.

There are variations to watch out for, which I am not up on, so I would leave it to others to identify if you have any there.

Value is better than silver value (0.925), but I have not watched these dates at auction for some years, so hopefully someone else can chip in.

My EF 1887 Jubilee was £17 

By comparison my EF 1887 Young Head (they made both that year) was £33.

Melt is currently £8.55.
