Pewter Money is a rarer type of Gun money. The main difference between the issues is that the Pewter Money was manafactured out of Pewter, sometimes with a brass plug. Halfcrowns and Crowns were issued in 1690 with the same dies as the Gun Money versions. Both these coins are extremely rare, along with a Groat struck in 1689 which is probably a pattern. Halfpennies and Pennies were also produced in 1689 and 1690, and less rare, although the 1689 penny is virtually unknown.
