1656, right? Were there definitely no 1650 Shillings?

I know the mint was closed for relocation and reworking of the dies to improve quality in 1650, but there were coins minted for other denominations…were there definitely no shillings?

I’m 99% certain this is a 6 that’s drifted off flan, but thought I’d ask, just in case someone had heard of a random die that may have been used as part of a trial?

Yes 1656. Like you say drifted off the flan. They occasionally pop up.
