Reeded
The half crown is 32.3 mm in diameter, weighs 13.98g and is made from .500 Silver.
I still have ca 1000 UK coins to list (inherited from my father) ranging from farthings to crowns. In addition, I still have a few Whitman storage albums (mostly empty but some with coins) that will be listed in the near future.
Please ask if you are looking for specific coins including penny and decimal £2, £1 and 50p.
