Picture of George V, Threepence 1919 (the last struck in Sterling Silver) Fine

George V, Threepence 1919 (the last struck in Sterling Silver) Fine

In 1919 the Royal Mint issued the last ever Sterling Silver Threepence for circulation. The next year, 1920, they reduced the silver content in our coins from 925 fine silver to 500 fine silver. King George V was on the Throne and World War I was just over, the economy needed the extra income from less silver in our coinage. We can offer the last ever Sterling Silver Threepence in Fine condition for just £8.50. It shows what inflation does to our money, today there is no silver in our coins just cupro-nickel, and even the smallest coins are only copper-plated steel.

George V, Threepence 1931 (.500 Fine Silver) Fine

In 1931 King George V was on the throne and the world was in the height of the Great Depression. Our coins were struck in .500 fine silver and the lowest silver denomination struck was the Threepence. You have the bare head of the King on one side and three acorns on the other side. The coins on offer are all dated 1931 and are in Fine condition. These coins are now 87 years old. They make a wonderful gift or you can use them in the Christmas pudding. In either case, most people under a certain age will never have seen them. Get them while you can.

George V, Threepence 1935 About Unc

In 1935 King George V reached his Silver Jubilee (1910-1935), a feat that not all that many of our Monarchs had or would reach. The smallest silver coin issued for circulation at that time was the Threepence or Joey. We have a nice group of these Silver Jubilee Silver Threepences on offer, but supplies are limited. Here we offer them in Uncirculated condition. The coins are struck in 500 fine Silver and the year after 1935, was when King George V died, causing great problems with Royal succession.

George V 1936 Threepence Uncirculated_obv

George V, Threepence 1936 Uncirculated

The 1936 Silver Threepence is the last one to be struck with the portrait of King George V on it. He died in early 1935, his son King Edward VIII took over and most of the coins, while they might have George V’s portrait on them, they were actually struck under Edward VIII. In December his brother became King George VI. These are Uncirculated Silver Threepences of 1936, and yes they are also known as the coins of the Year of Three Kings. Struck in 500 fine silver, they are very high-grade and will look great in your collection.
