The threepence, which is often expressed as 3d, is a 12-sided coin that first entered circulation in the mid-16th century during the era of King Edward VI. It was worth 1/80th of a pound, or ¼ of a shilling. The coin, albeit in several incarnations, remained in circulation right up until the decimalisation system came into effect.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
