Coins derive their value from their rarity, condition, visual appeal and - most importantly – the size of their collector base. Our specialists are experienced at assessing preservation and identifying details that distinguish a common coin from a valuable one.

Research by Alan Kelly suggests that the silver strikings were coined after the regular copper currency issue, as the dies exhibit more wear in the resulting silver examples. The Birmingham manufacturer of the 1758 Atholl issue, John Florry (d.1788), who had first quoted for the coinage contract in July 1756, produced at least 48 examples in silver, which had been received by the Duke of Atholl in London by 18th May 1758.
