Brief History of the Shilling

The shilling was demonetized in 1971 when it was replaced by the 5p coin and the last shilling minted for circulation was 1966.

With a value of 12 pence it was first issued in 1502 during the reign of Henry the Seventh. Today you would need four or five thousand pounds to buy one of these early coins.

The shilling was originally known as a testoon and only became known as a shilling during the reign of Edward the Sixth.

It was during the reign of Charles the Second that milled shillings first appeared in vast quantities. They were 6.0 grams in weight, but from 1816 onwards this was reduced to 5.7 grams.

In 1920 the silver content of the shilling was reduced from 92.5% to 50% and from 1947 onwards it was entirely cupronickel.

From George the Sixth onwards both Scottish and English shillings were minted.
