Silver Shillings: A Lot of Twenty-One Coins
This lot comprises twenty-one silver shillings, dating from 1922 to 1946. These coins represent a period of British pre-decimal currency, crafted from a half-silver alloy. The shillings showcase the portrait of King George V and King George VI on the obverse, and the crowned lion on the reverse, typical of the era. The total weight of the lot is 117g.
Condition and Collectibility
These shillings exhibit signs of circulation, with varying degrees of wear and patina consistent with their age. While not pristine, they remain attractive examples of British coinage, appealing to collectors of pre-decimal currency and silver coins. This lot offers an opportunity to acquire a substantial collection of shillings from a significant period in British history, suitable for display, research, or as an addition to an existing numismatic collection.
