Edward VIEdward VI
The first sixpence was introduced by Edward VI in 1551. It was made of fine silver and was quickly accepted by the people. Initially they were only minted in the Tower and at York. Edward was only 9 when he came to the throne but the legacy of the sixpence was to last 419 years. 


Edward VI - 1551-1553Edward VI - 1551-1553
A lovely example of the first sixpences to be minted during the middle 16th century. Hand made, these coins were not marked with a date. This is a good example with less than average wear, if you are vaguely interested in history this sixpence is for you.
