This silver shilling, minted in 1689, depicts King James II of England on the obverse and a crowned "JR" for "Jacobus Rex" with crossed scepters on the reverse. The inscription reads "JACOBVS II DEI GRA REX" (James II by the Grace of God King) on the obverse, and "HIB REX. 1689. XII. MAG. BR" (King of Ireland, King, 1689, 12, Great Britain) on the reverse. This coin is an example of numismatic art, reflecting the visual and symbolic language of the time. It is on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
