Pistole (Scottish coin)

A pistole was a Scottish gold coin minted in 1701 under the reign of King William III. Along with the half-pistole it was the last gold coin minted for Scottish coinage.[1] With a weight of 106 grains (6.9 grams; 0.22 troy oz), the coin was equal to 12 Scottish pounds.[2][3]
