| 表面の説明 | Left-facing draped bust of Queen Anne, engraved by John Croker, her hair elaborately dressed and swept upward with a ribbon bow at the nape of the neck, the truncation of the bust draped in classical robes fastened at the shoulder. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine detail in the hair and drapery. The circumferential Latin legend reads ANNA·DEI·GRATIA, separated by stops, within a toothed border. |

These crowns were struck in the final years of English sovereignty before the Acts of Union merged England and Scotland into Great Britain in 1707. The "VIGO" issue of 1703 — the most historically loaded of this reign — was minted from silver captured by Admiral Sir George Rooke's fleet at the Battle of Vigo Bay, where Anglo-Dutch forces destroyed a Spanish treasure convoy returning from the Americas. Parliament insisted the captured bullion be coined rather than melted anonymously into the general stock.
The 1705 and 1707 strikes lack the Vigo provenance and are considerably scarcer in circulation grades, having seen far lower mintage runs.
