| 背面描述 | A Scottish thistle occupies the central field within a beaded inner circle, with a mintmark positioned above the thistle. The thistle is rendered with characteristic spiky sepals and a crowned floral head, reflecting the union of England and Scotland under James I. No legend or inscription appears on this side. Note: a similar type without mintmark is attributed to the 3rd coinage. |

James I's second coinage halfpenny in silver was one of the last gasps of English hammered silver at this denomination. Within years, the practical uselessness of a 0.27g silver piece — easily lost, frequently clipped below even its modest intrinsic value — drove the Crown toward copper coinage for small change, a transition James himself authorized via royal proclamation in 1613, though full copper halfpenny production under royal authority didn't stabilize until the reign of his successor.
