1965 SCOTTISH SHILLING ( UNC )

This 1965 Scottish shilling represents an outstanding example of pre-decimalization coinage preserved in full Uncirculated condition. Minted during the shilling's penultimate year of production, this coin displays flawless surfaces with no circulation wear and vibrant original lustre maintained across both sides. The obverse presents Queen Elizabeth II's effigy with exceptional precision, whilst the reverse features the emblematic Scottish lion in pristine detail—a hallmark of coins struck for circulation throughout Scotland. A highly prized specimen for numismatists pursuing gem-quality Scottish shillings or those assembling comprehensive final-year collections before the historic transition to decimal currency in 1971.
