Comments:
These hammered pieces were struck just after the fall of the Protectorate, only lasting two years in their mint run, essentially split into three types, a] without inner linear circle or mark of value, b] without inner linear circles but with mark of value and c] with both linear circles and marks of value; respectively first, second and third issues. All will be accompanied with the Crown mintmark, apt given the restoration of power, back into Royal hands.
