This silver coin, minted in 1703, depicts Queen Anne of England in profile on one side and the Royal Coat of Arms on the other. The coin is a striking example of numismatic art, showcasing the craftsmanship and artistry of the anonymous engraver. It was made from silver looted from the Spanish fleet at the Battle of Vigo Bay, a significant event in British naval history. The coin is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in the Netherlands.
