The coin pictured above is a billion bawbee or Scottish sixpence, of .250 fineness which was minted from 1538-1542 and would soon become one of the most common coins in circulation in Scotland during that time. The face of the coin has a thistle, and the reverse a St. Andrews Cross within a crown and flanked by two fleur de lis. |
