| Beschrijving keerzijde | The four-quartered British-Hanoverian royal coat of arms, displayed without the Hanoverian inescutcheon, surmounted by a large arched crown, and set within an ornate baroque cartouche with foliate flourishes. The first and fourth quarters bear the three passant guardant lions of England, the second quarter the lion rampant of Scotland, the third quarter the fleur-de-lis of France, and the lower-left quarter the Irish harp. The date 1774 appears above the crown, and the legend VIRGINIA. 1774 is distributed to either side of the shield. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Virginia's 1774 coinage was authorized by the colonial government to address a chronic shortage of small change, with the dies cut in London and the coins struck at the Tower Mint. The shilling pattern was never formally issued for circulation — the outbreak of hostilities in 1775 rendered the entire project moot before distribution could begin.
Most surviving examples descend from a small group believed to have been retained as specimens rather than released. PCGS has certified only a handful across all grade levels.
