Queen Anne. After Union with Scotland. Bust left. Reverse: The shields on the reverse are changed to Post-Union type.
An interesting glimpse into the life of women at this time would be that Anne was pregnant eighteen times. Only five children were born alive, and four of those died before the age of two. The last did not make it to adulthood. Thus, despite all the attempts, Anne was the last Stuart ruler, dying without heirs.
