This half crown coin, minted between 1690 and 1697, depicts King James II of England. The coin, housed in the Rijksmuseum, displays the king's profile on one side and the royal arms, featuring crossed swords and a crown, on the other. Its small size, measuring only 3 cm in diameter and weighing 11.31 grams, highlights the detail and craftsmanship of the anonymous artist who created this piece. The coin is an important historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the reign of King James II and the currency used during his time.
