1 Crown - James VIII Restrike, Pattern

正面描述	Draped bust of James VIII (James Francis Edward Stuart, the Old Pretender) facing right, wearing a laurel wreath over flowing curled hair, rendered in the high-relief Baroque style characteristic of Norbert Roettiers. The effigy is finely detailed, with the drapery knotted at the shoulder visible at the bust truncation. The surrounding Latin legend reads IACOBVS VIII DEI GRATIA, separated by pellet stops, and the entire design is framed by a bold milled border of raised beads.

附加信息	James Francis Edward Stuart — "the Old Pretender" — had this coinage prepared in 1716 in the immediate aftermath of the failed Jacobite rising of 1715, asserting his claim as James VIII of Scotland and III of England from exile in France. The pieces were never circulated; they functioned as diplomatic and propagandistic objects, distributed among sympathizers and foreign courts rather than through any monetary channel. The term "restrike" in the catalog literature reflects later reuse of the original dies, making precise attribution of any given example to 1716 production a genuine specialist problem.
