Information on the Silver
Threepence
|
|
|
|
As
there is so much to say about the silver 3d.
It
is probably best left for those interested in
its
history for use as British currency from the
reign
of Edward VI (1550-53) to visit the
Wikipedia
website for
Threepence
(British coins)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The
3d denomination was used for Maundy as well
as
currency purposes from
Charles
II (3rd hammered coinage -1662 !)
and
the milled series from 1670 to the present day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Its
use as general British currency diminished
a
few years after 1763.
After
the great re-coinage of 1816 the 3d was
made
primarily for Maundy use with some dates
from 1817 to 1833 for colonial use in the West Indies.
The
specific dates are not recorded and were struck
from
the same Maundy dies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In
1834 to 1844 currency silver 3d were struck for
use in the West Indies but have become part
of the British collecting series -
as per the Groats [4d] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In
1845 silver 3d were struck for use as general
currency in the UK and then continually
from 1854. The
dates 1846 to 1853 were primarily for
colonial use but some might have been for general
UK use. Many of the dates prior to 1854 are
scarce or rare due to their very low mintages. |

Victoria [Young
head] 1838 - 1887 (YH) |
|
|
|
|
Right
from the start of Victoria's reign,1838, it appears
as
if there were problems with all of the colon dots
after
D: G: BRITANNIAR : and especially after F: D:
The
"link" page concentrates only on those of F: D:
As
to their rarity or importance as varieties - who knows ?
I
would suggest that none of these varieties add to
the value of the coin and can be treated as just
interesting
repairs !
These
are the ones I have come across so far !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I
have listed the following as
|
|
|
Type
A - 2 colon
dots after F: D: (Align to back of bust)
Type
A1 - 2 colon dots after F: & 3 after D:. (Align
as Type A)
Type
Aa - 2 colon dots after F: & 3 after D:. (Align
as Type A)
Type
Ab - 2 colon dots after F: D: (New alignments
after D:)
Type
Ac - 2 colon dots after F: D: (New alignments
after D:)
Type
Ad - 2 colon dots after F: D: (New alignments
after D:)
Type
Ae - 2 colon dots after F: & 3 after
D.:
Type.
Af - 2 colon dots after F: & 3 after
D.:
Type
Ag - 2 ½ colon dots after F.: & 3
after D.:
Type
Ah - 2 ½ colon dots after F.: & 3 ½
after
D.:
Type
Ai - 3 colon dots after F: & 3 colon dots after D::
Type
Aj - 2 colon dots after F: & 4
colon dots after D::
Type
Ak - 3 colon dots after F.: & 4 after
D::
Type
Am - 3 ½ colon dots after F:: &
3 ½ after
D::
Type
An - 3 ½ colon dots after F:: &
3 ½ after
D::
Type.
Ap - 2 colon dots after F: (Tilt
forward)
Type
Ar - 2 colon dots after F: (Tilt
backward)
Type
As - 2 colon dots after F: & 3 after
D.: (1 dot on D !)
Type
At - 2 colon dots after F & D (Inner dot
cuts into the D)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These
colon dot variations ONLY apply to
Victoria
obverse dies 1 & 2 (As per Davies's book)
1838
to 1867
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These
varieties are listed for information purposes only
There
are probably more !
