Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Crown - James I (2nd coinage) ND (1604-1607) coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of Ireland, which was not present on earlier coins of James I. This addition was made to symbolize the integration of Ireland into the United Kingdom.
