DEVS: CONIVNXIT: NEMO: SEPERAT, the last T tiny and above left edge of crown, weight 14.99g (Burns 39, fig.-; Bull type 4, no.15 legend 5; S.5555). Usual flawed planchet at top of obverse for this variety, some other flan adjustment marks on horseman, otherwise good very fine and one of the plate coins in Bull specifically to illustrate the colon over the thistle on obverse and the two stars over crown on reverse, a rare variety.
The Latin legends translate as "Charles by the grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland" on the obverse, and "What God hath joined together, let no man put asunder" on the reverse, a Psalm taken from the Bible.

Ex Brian Dawson, Collection of Halfcrowns, Dix Noonan and Webb, Auction 157, 21st March 2019, lot 185.
