Elizabeth I 6d Fair

Silver sixpences have long been associated with bringing good luck to the bride and groom on their big day. The silver sixpence was one of the most popular denominations of Elizabeth I’s reign after first being introduced by Edward VI in 1551. These Elizabethan sixpences were individually struck by hand at the Tower Mint between 1561 and 1602. They feature a portrait of the Queen facing left with Tudor rose behind, the reverse features a long cross fourchée over quartered shield of arms, with the date above. In this issue, we are delighted to offer you Elizabeth I sixpences from the Tower Mint on Special Offer for just £59.50.
