The King's Shilling

When you joined the services, it was said that you ‘took the King’s shilling’. Presented here are ‘The King’s Shillings’, of King George V Shillings from 1920-1936. There were two distinct types of these George V Shillings. From 1920-1926 they carried on with the design used on the Sterling Silver coinage. From 1927-1936 the design was changed to a Lion proudly standing on a crown. All coins are in selected circulated condition and struck in .500 silver. Some dates are in short supply.
