ShillingCharles I 1645 Newark Besieged S.3142 GVF a bold example showing excellent detail, of the Newark type, 5.72 grammes. An exceptional striking from the Civil War period, a little excess flan on three sides of the piece, way better than most examples encountered of this type, many of which have been holed and plugged. This would make a super addition to any collection of Civil War period coinage, or a nicely struck Shilling for the Charles I type collector
