George VI, Threepence (Silver) 1938 Choice Unc

Choice Uncirculated.

In 1960 the Royal Mint issued their shilling coins with both an English and a Scottish reverse. Because of the lower population of Scotland, they produced far fewer Scottish shillings than English shillings. The coins on offer are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and are now 61 years old. Here we offer the 1960 English Shilling Brilliant Unc. The Royal Mint struck its last shillings for circulation in 1960. Not easy coins to find these days.

In 1937 a new brass Threepence coin was introduced by King George VI. But at the same time they continued to also make the threepence in silver. Here we offer the 1940 Silver Threppence in sellected circulated condition. Striking of the silver threepence halted in 1944, so some dates are very difficult to get. We will offer the 1942 and 1943 when we have enough in stock to supply the anticipated demand. But get this one while you can, after all, it is one of the final silver threepences made for everyday use. 1942-1945 were issued for use in the colonies and are much scarcer.
