A 1956 Half Penny Coin from the UK minted in the reign of Elizabeth II.

Perfect for a collection.

In the days before decimalisation, 480 of these bronze coins made a pound. You actually felt rich due to the weight of having a shilling’s worth in your pocket, although your pocket would not last very long with the wear and tear of 136g some 5 ounces of bronze in it.

Weight 5.7g, 25mm diameter.

The 1956 Half Penny Coin shown is the one you will receive.
