{"product_id":"1553-silver-groat-mary-3","title":"1553 SILVER GROAT MARY","description":"\u003cp\u003eA significant groat from the opening year of Mary I's reign, 1553. This coin commemorates the accession of England's first reigning queen, marking a transformative moment in both political and numismatic history. Mary groats represent a specialised and increasingly sought-after collecting category, with 1553 issues holding particular historical weight. The groat denomination reflects Mary's continuation of established Tudor monetary standards whilst asserting her own royal authority through coinage. Surviving examples from her brief reign remain comparatively scarce, particularly those in identifiable condition. This piece appeals to collectors focused on Tudor and early Stuart numismatics, those studying female monarchs in coinage, and specialists in mid-16th-century English silver. An important specimen documenting a pivotal transition in English royal and monetary history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridgeshire Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57109528609141,"sku":null,"price":687.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0165\/3024\/3648\/files\/1553-silver-groat-marymarycambridgeshire-coins-9756942.png?v=1777476924","url":"https:\/\/www.cambridgeshirecoins.com\/en-au\/products\/1553-silver-groat-mary-3","provider":"Cambridgeshire Coins ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
