So I've made it to day 7 of my promise to blog for a week. So depending on how you guys have enjoyed my little blogs, I'll either give it a break for a while or carry on. Let me know.
OK so here we have a large portion from my collection of what you guys across the pond would call "junk silver" or constitutional silver. All these have been bought from car-boot sales/garage sales or eBay. This is what I started to collect before I got in to modern day silver coins/rounds. It all came about from metal detecting and these coins I found detecting I'll show in a different blog later on this week. These coins do not include my higher value silver as these are stored in a secure location away from home and I'll show you these at a later time too.
This is my Threepence collection, 1873 to 1936. All bar the bottom 2 are .925 silver. The bottom 2 .500 fine Silver as these were debased in 1920. They weigh approx 1.414g each.
These coins range from 1918 to 1946. Originally these coins were .925 silver but were reduced to .500 in 1920. Most are graded fine a few are graded EF. These weigh 5.65g each.
Top row we have 3 Florin all .500 fine Silver weighing 11.3g
Second row we have some older shillings. 1817,1887 & 1899 all weigh 5.65g
Bottom row is an 1816 sixpence weighing 2.827g
Hope you liked my little collection of older silver, all are for sale, either as a job lot or individually and I will gladly accept steem as payment. Make me an offer.
