Your question poses a small problem. No English coin was introduced in 1526 and no British coin was withdrawn in 1965.

Many English coins circulating in or around 1526, were still circulating in one form or another in 1965.

The "Testoon", later known as the "Shilling", was first minted in small quantities around 1489, but minted in much larger quantities from about 1544.

The Shilling continued to circulate along side the 5 New Pence and 5 Pence coins until 1990 when all coins were replace with a smaller 5 Pence coin.
