| English gold halfcrowns were issued first by Henry VIII - gold halfcrowns were also minted by Edward VI, Elizabeth I, James I and Charles I. English silver halfcrowns were first minted by Edward VI (1551) and were, apart from early temporary periods of debasement, 100% sterling silver until 1920 when content was reduced to 50% to repay United Kingdom war debts. Silver content was completely removed in World War II for the same reason and from then British halfcrowns were cupro-nickel. The value of a Great Britain halfcrown was 2 shillings and 6 pence (30 pence) - 1/8th of a British pound. On Charles I death hammered Commonwealth halfcrowns showed the value as II VI - the coin became commonly called a "2 and 6". |
