	British Ten Pence coin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The British decimal Ten Pence (10p) coin was issued in 1968 in preparation for the forthcoming decimalisation of the coinage.
		The coin is minted from an alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel.
		In 1992 a smaller version weighing 6.50 grams and with a diameter of 24.50 millimetres was introduced, and all the older 10p and florin coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised from 1 July 1993.

		Note that all Maundy coins (which originate in the pre-decimalisation era and have a different design from 'standard issue' coins) are legal tender in the UK, and so while the standard one and two penny coins originate in 1971, the oldest legal tender one and two penny coins date from 1822.
		Coins from British dependencies are sometimes found in change in other jurisdictions, but are not legal tender in the United Kingdom and tend not to be accepted by UK traders and banks.
		In 1920, the silver content of all British coins was reduced from 92.5% to 50%, with a portion of the remainder consisting of manganese, which caused the coins to tarnish to a very dark colour after they had been in circulation for a significant period.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Numismatics
		In the study of the science, as well as in the classification of coins, it is the practice to follow, chronologically, three great eras: the ancient, medieval, and modern; geographically, the different political division of the respective times.
		Coins of the archbishops of Canterbury and York are extant.
		Coins are also very frequently used to commemorate enfeoffments, and these bear a representation of the liege lord from whom the kneeling vassal receives the gonfalon.

	British Coins before the Florin, Compared to French Coins of the Ancient Regime
		The table at right shows the British coins in common use until the introduction of the two shilling Florin in 1849.
		Silver coins would simply become tokens for their face value in gold, regardless of the intrinsic value of silver (so long as this was less than the face value!).
		The modern British 5p coin, which is the decimal descendant of the shilling, thus may be said to be the last link to Roman coinage, although, as the solidus, it only existed on paper for the many centuries of the silver penny.

	British coinage - InformationBlast
		A circulating bimetallic £2 coin was also introduced in 1998 (first minted in, and dated, 1997) - there had previously been commemorative £2 coins which did not normally circulate.
		The weight of this coin was originally 1/240th of a troy pound, a weight known as a pennyweight - around 1.555 grams.
		The weight of this coin was instituted by Charlemagne, and the purity of 92.5% silver ( sterling silver) was instituted by Henry II in 1158 with the "Tealby Penny" -- a hammered coin.

		Knowing how to grade coins will not only help you purchase your coins more accurately, but it will help you to identify with your coins to know their true grade and getting a better understanding of what your coins are worth.
		Lots of money is spent on purchasing coins without the knowledge of knowing what the true grade of the coin is. The coin collector assumes the person or dealer that he is buying the coin from is knowledgeable himself and trust him.

	Agnostic Coinage
		Coin designers have therefore always had to abbreviate it, only including what seemed to be the most important parts.
		Until the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, the shortened title, as authorised for use on the coin of the realm, was: "(the monarch's name and number), by the Grace of God King (or Queen) of all the Britons, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India (until 1947)".
		The florin of 1849 became known as the "Godless florin" and every subsequent British coin issue has not failed to include both these elements of the royal title.

	Identifying British coins.
		It can be difficult to identify British coins as often no denomination is stated on the coin and the legends are usually in Latin.
		Before the installation of steam coin presses around the later part of the 1700's most denominations had a slightly irregular shape and although the weights were uniform, often the exact sizes were not.
		British coins dated from 1760 -1967 using metal types, date ranges and diameters.

	1912 British £SD Coin Sets
		Not all values of coins are issued every year, it depends on demand, but in 1912, all eight of the normal circulating denominations were issued, namely halfcrown, florin, shilling, sixpence, silver threepence, halfpenny and farthing.
		The florin is a slightly scarce or "key" date, having the lowest mintage of any recent florin.
		Proof or specimen coin sets were only issued on special occasions such as coronations and jubilees.

	Coins of the UK
		In advance of D-day the halfpenny and half-crown were withdrawn, and 5 new pence and 10 new pence coins were issued from 1968 to circulate alongside the existing shilling and florin coins.
		Three new coins have been introduced since decimalisation - the 20p appeared in 1982 followed by the pound coin in 1983 and the two pound coin in 1998 (although 1997 versions are frequently found in change).
		Commemorative two pound coins were issued irregularly from 1986, but these early coins differ from the circulating version first issued in 1998 in that the latter is much thinner and is also bimetallic.

		The list was compiled including all the usual scarcer date British coins (some of them legendary!) with additions of other coins made according to current catalogue values.
		Most of the coins on this page are worth between £1 and £10 with the excessively rare coins (marked with a ' * ') being worth a small fortune.
		All silver coins issued before 1920 are sterling (.925) Silver, and all coins issued between 1920 and 1946 contain 50% silver (.500) so because of the bullion content these coins are usually worth a little more than the post 1947 'Silver' coins.

		In October 1969 the 50p joined the 5p (shilling) and 10p (florin) coins in circulation, leaving only the three copper coins to be introduced on 15 February 1971 to complete the new series of decimal coins.
		With the introduction of smaller 5p and 10p coins in 1990 and 1992 respectively, the 50p became the largest coin in circulation.
		The results revealed a requirement for a smaller 50p coin, which was duly introduced on 1 September 1997.
