This 1689 silver shilling depicts King James II of England on one side and a royal coat of arms with a crown on the other. It was a form of currency used in England at the time and is a great example of numismatic art, a sub-genre of art that deals with coins and medals. This particular coin is on display at the Rijksmuseum, a famous museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
