{"product_id":"1787-shilling-gf-holed","title":"1787 SHILLING ( GF ) HOLED","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 1787 shilling from George III's reign survives in good fine condition, though it features a period hole suggesting historical use as a suspended ornament or charm. The coin retains substantial detail with legible inscriptions and recognisable portrait characteristics, demonstrating the strength of its original strike. Holed coins from the late 18th century provide compelling evidence of contemporary practices, revealing how currency was repurposed beyond monetary function into personal adornment or talismanic objects. The specimen's condition and date make it particularly instructive for understanding material culture during the late Georgian era. Such pieces appeal to collectors pursuing thematic collections centred on coin modification, social history, or the everyday applications of currency in past societies, combining numismatic authenticity with interpretive historical value.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridgeshire Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56404724318581,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0165\/3024\/3648\/files\/1787-shilling-gf-holedshillingcambridgeshire-coins-8929059.png?v=1764337463","url":"https:\/\/www.cambridgeshirecoins.com\/en-us\/products\/1787-shilling-gf-holed","provider":"Cambridgeshire Coins ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
