These two Shillings are from my 1937 specimen (proof set), they have turned a pretty dark blue almost gunmetal blue.
Though it does not bother me some may not like it. I got the whole set a few years ago, of all the silver these turned the most.
It was with the George VI that the two unique shilling designs were introduced, the reverses were designed by George Kruger Gray
(1880-1943)
Shilling English (SP PS16) SP4082, Lion rampant on large crown
Shilling Scottish (SP PS16) SP4083, Lion seated facing on crown holding a sword and sceptre, also note the Scottish Thistle and St. Andrews cross on either side
