Description
Merchant Issues - silver, Scotland, LANARKSHIRE, New Lanark, Lanark Mills, a France, Louis XV, Half-Ecu, 1730 9, Rennes, obv. countermarked payable at lanark mills around 2/6, and quatrefoil in shield, 13.66g/6h (Manville 74; Hodge 074S-003a, this coin; KM. CC69). Host coin fair, countermarks fine, extremely rare, four specimens known £1,000-£1,500

Provenance: Glendining Auction, A.E. Bray Collection, Glendining Auction, 1 May 1985, lot 217; W.J. Noble Collection, Noble Numismatics Pty Auction 58B (Melbourne), 7-8 July 1998, lot 1591
Neither the host coins’ dates nor movements in the bullion price are helpful in dating this series (which may in fact have been two separate issues, with and without shield and quatrefoil stamp). Logically, they may well have circulated alongside the five shilling coins [Manville pp.145-6]. Four specimens of this variety are known to Hodge, one of which is in the British Museum collection.
