GREAT BRITAIN: George III, 1760-1820, AR 3 shillings, 1812, KM-Tn5, S-3770, ESC-2084, Bank of England token issue, faint surface hairlines, UNC. Minted during the Napoleonic Wars, when the Royal Mint was not producing Crown coinage but rather pieces issued under the authority of the Bank of England, thus technically a token although its purity of metal caused it to be accepted as money. The era of official circulating token coinage that began with the countermarking of Spanish American 8 Reales would end with the final issue of this type when the New Coinage began to appear.
