Best Answer

An Australian 1947 50% silver Threepence (George VI), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to $150 AUD. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch anything from $1.50 to $28 AUD.

There were 4.176 million minted.

A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.

How do you clean Australian threepence?

If you are hoping to add value to the coin, DO NOT CLEAN IT with anything. Cleaning of coins damages the finish and reduces value. All Australian Threepences were made from sterling silver from 1910 to 1944, or 50% silver from 1947 to 1964. If you have an otherwise valueless coin that you would just like to clean so that it looks nice, try any of the commercially available jewellery cleaners.


What does a 1955 Australian Threepence look like?

The Australian 1955 Threepence looks the same as all Australian Threepences minted from 1953 to 1964 inclusive. From 1947 to 1964, their composition was 50% silver, 40% copper, 5% zinc and 5% nickel. They had a plain edge, weighed 1.41 grams and were 16 mm in diameter. The Australian 1955 Threepence has Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse, and the reverse design shows three stalks of wheat with the year split either side of the stalks, AUSTRALIA across the top and THREEPENCE across the bottom. Pictures of a specific coin are difficult to come by. Frequently you should be able to find one on eBay, but the picture is withdrawn after the coin is sold.
