Historical significance
Issued during the reign of Queen Victoria, this coin was part of the British sterling currency system. In 1848, these were relatively small denomination silver coins intended for general circulation and Maundy money, though standard circulation issues were becoming more common during this era.
Estimated value
$5.00 - $35.00 USD (Depends heavily on grade and wear; the visible specimen shows significant surface oxidation/toning).
