Threepence (Joey)

When the first convicts were sent to Australia, these George III Silver threepences of 1762 and 1763 were on board. They are highly collected in Australia as one of the first coins to come to that country. We have a small group of choice examples in Uncirculated condition. Of course most of the coins were carried by the guards, but no doubt some of the convicts had money too. These are beautiful coins with an important history to Australia and they are now almost 260 years old. These are much nice than you would usually see the 1762 and 1763 George III silver threepences. Get them while you can…

The last design of the Queen Victoria coinage is known as the Old Head design and it shows her in her Widow outfit. The coins on offer are the Silver Threepences which is the smallest denomination silver coin struck for general usage. You have the Old Head of Queen Victoria on one side and the denomination on the other side. All coins are struck in Sterling Silver and are in Very Good condition. We have listed all the dates that we have in stock and it has been sometime since we last offered this coin.
