- 1783 John Chalmers Shilling. W-1790. Rarity-4. Birds, Long Worm. VG-10 (PCGS). A second circulated example of this desirable type issue in the John Chalmers silver series, this is a pleasingly toned dove gray example with tinges of cobalt blue and pale gold evident as the surfaces dip into a light. Both sides are struck off center to 3 o'clock, the right third of both obverse and reverse worn nearly smooth. Other areas are quite sharp for the assigned grade, the centers retaining about a third of the clasped hands motif on the obverse and nearly half of the scene with the birds and serpent on the obverse. Smooth in hand apart from a few trivial flan flaws, closer inspection with a loupe reveals little more than some wispy handling marks. PCGS has mounted this coin with the reverse (birds side) up in the holder. PCGS# 595. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
