Struck during the reign of Queen Anne, the 1703 Anne Maundy Set is a fine example of early 18th-century British coinage and a piece with strong historical and royal appeal. Issued for the Royal Maundy ceremony, these silver coins were made for a long-standing tradition of royal charity and remain highly regarded by collectors today.
The set includes the one penny, two pence, three pence and four pence pieces, each struck in silver for ceremonial presentation. For collectors, the attraction lies in the set’s age, its connection to the last Stuart monarch and its place within the early Maundy series.
The obverse features the portrait of Queen Anne, a design that reflects the dignity of her reign. The reverse carries the crowned denomination marks associated with Maundy coinage, giving the set its clear identity and elegant simplicity. Their small size and neat detail make them especially attractive to collectors of early British silver.
Complete sets from Anne’s reign are highly desirable, particularly because they link to a short and important period in British history. This gives the set added interest for collectors of Maundy money, royal ceremonial issues and coins from the Stuart period.
With its royal connection, refined design and strong historical character, the Anne Maundy Set offers collectors a meaningful link to one of the most important chapters in British coinage.
