King George V ruled from 1910-1936 and during his reign the most amazing thing happened to his coinage. Up until 1919 the coins were struck in Sterling Silver 925/1000 parts silver and, in 1920, they reduced the silver fineness to 500/1000 or 500 fine silver. The .500 Fine Silver Type Set will contain a silver Threepence, Sixpence, Shilling, Florin and Halfcrown. Five carefully selected coins from circulation, selected by type and not by date, so the dates will be mixed in order to give you the best quality possible.
