Best Answer

The Royal Mint did not issue any coins called a Quarter-Shilling, but a quarter of a Shilling was a Threepence, a coin that was issued for hundreds of years.

The Bailiwick of Jersey, one of the Channel Islands, issued a "One Fourth of a Shilling" coin variously from 1957 to 1966.

What is the value of a 1958 English quarter?

The English do not produce a coin known as a "quarter". Perhaps you refer to a British "Shilling" being approximately the same diameter as a US "Quarter". The 1958 British Shilling comes in two varieties. Both feature Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse, the difference is on the reverse. The "English" reverse shows a crowned shield with three lions. The "Scottish" reverse shows a crowned shield with a rampant lion. Both coins have FID DEF and ONE SHILLING inscribed on the reverse. See the related question at the link below.

How much is a quarter of florin cents from 1859 worth?

You've got to be more specific. First, the usual definition of a florin would be the British coin worth 2 shillings (1/10th of a pound). Because of this, there would be no such thing as a "quarter of a florin" let alone "cents" which cents have never been used when referring to British currency. So a quarter of a florin would be half a shilling or sixpence. But sixpence coins would always say sixpence and never would say "a quarter of a florin" I'd look at your coins again and post a new question.
