George V 1910 - 1936

We have just found in a small room a little lot of the 1936 British Silver Sixpences. They are in Choice Uncirculated condition and the date is rather special. In 1936 we had three different Kings, George V, Edward VIII, and of course George VI. While all the coins carry the portrait of King George V, they were actually struck while King Edward VIII was on the throne, he ruled for 10 months in 1936. These are the last George V coins and are in Choice Uncirculated condition. A very small and very nice group of this important 1936 silver sixpence…

We now have available a number of the dates of the King George V Silver Sixpences issued from 1920 to 1936. Here we offer the 1936 Sixpence in selected circulated condition

In 1936 this country had three Kings, George V, Edward VIII and George VI. All of the coins issued that year carried the portrait of the late King George V, which was tradition with our coinage. No new coins would be issued until the new Monarch was actually crowned. As Edward VIII never made it, there were no British coins issued for this Monarch. The Sixpence is a very popular coin, as it is often given to a bride to wear in her shoe for good luck at her wedding. The coins on offer are in Gem Uncirculated condition, a very high grade examples of the Three Kings Sixpence.
