There were no British Sixpences (half Shilling) minted from 1788 to 1815 inclusive. There was very little silver and copper coinage minted during this period due to Britains ongoing and costly wars. You may have a privately issued or counterfeit coin. Counterfeiting was rife during this period due to the shortage of official coinage.
