Answer 3

There are about 30 or more variants of the British 1697 Sixpence. The variants mostly include spelling errors, slight deviations in the design, or the different mints they were produced at.

A British 1697 silver Sixpence (William III), depending on the variant, circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £30 to £1,500 GBP.

I strongly recommend that you take your coin to a reputable coin dealer for positive identification.

NOTE - The reverse of these coins is upside down to the obverse. This is normal.

The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.

Answer 4

The Pound or Sovereign was not introduced into the British system of currency until 1817 when it replaced the Guinea, and the first Two Pound coin (Double Sovereigns) was minted in 1820.

Answer 5

Nothing, such a coin does not exist.

James I ruled from 1603 to 1625.

William III was running the country from 1694 to 1702.
