Edinburgh 1538 – 1545 Master-moneyer [EN] Il Forrer (1902-30, IV, p. 330) riporta: under James V., 1538-1545. He issued a series of billon coins, known as Bawbees, and Half Bawbees (Placks, and Half Placks): Obv. + IACOBVS . D . G . REX SCOTORVM. Crowned thistle dividing 15; R. OPPIDVM EDINBVRGI. St. Andrew's cross. Cochran-Patrick places the issue of these coins as late as 1542. The name is derived from bas billon and not from Sillebawby. The current value of the Bawbee was 1 1/2 d. There are several varieties. The name of the Engraver of these pieces is not known. Fonte: FORRER 1902-30 IV, p. 330
