@@BitsAndBobsCoins they are the best for stacking fractional silver so can be sold in smaller bits if needed. And penny for penny the thrupenny bits are best value as they are the least demanded denomination, people pay £20+ for a half crown you can get the same weight in 3d Coins for about a tenner
They are all basically before 1860 and one 1882. I find generally any 3d before 1887 is hard to find as they were not really used. the 1830s to 1850s groats were used more and 3ds used for the colonies. Only after 1887 do they become common. I only have 1843, 1873 and a worn 1884 before 1887. My rarest other than brass, is the 1943 silver, which was just over 1 million and mine is EF.
Between 1937 and 1944 both were minted and ran in parallel although the silver ones made after 1942 were strictly speaking meant for the colonies, but two of each year for those years if you are collecting

Yes that's usually how it is the early years are much harder to find
And 43' is a great one to have
I have 2 silver Queen Victoia threepenny bits with the head upside down to the other side of coin, are they worth any thing ?? Del UK
Sadly all pre 1887 silver coins are like that
Hi ,Ihave 1843 silver sixpence bit damaged ps thanks for the information
Sounds like a great coin 😀
Sorry im new to the coin world, did they mint a circular and flat sided coin at same time?
There was a silver Threepence and a brass Threepence with 12 sides
Between 1937 and 1944 both were minted and ran in parallel although the silver ones made after 1942 were strictly speaking meant for the colonies, but two of each year for those years if you are collecting
I have the 1945 the last coin you spoke about, how do I go about selling it
Such a coin would need to be taken to auction
I have 1826 coin
I have plenty in these coins to sell I will send some pictures
Got a 1874 ...Whats it worth?
£2 - £20
What about silver threepences from 1946 to 2023?
They stopped production in 1945
All other issues will be Maundy coins not for circulation
