half a crown was two shillings six pence or 5 sixpences
a sixpence was nicknamed a tanner
1 x 6 pence = sixpence (a tanner)
2 x 6 pence = 1 shilling (a bob)
4 x 6 pence = 2 shillings = 1 florin
5 x 6 pence = 1 half crown
10 x 6 pence = 1 crown = 1/4 pound
The value of a 1929 Half Crown coin can vary depending on its condition, rarity, and demand among collectors. In general, a circulated 1929 Half Crown may be worth around $5 to $15, while a well-preserved specimen could be valued at $20 or more. It is recommended to have the coin appraised by a professional or check recent sales to get a more accurate estimate.
A "Tanner" is a British colloquial term for a Sixpence. A "Halfcrown" is Two Shillings and Sixpence. There are five Sixpences (Tanners) in a Halfcrown.
Neither are correct in my view. In Australia, we say ‘more tanned’.
Really depends on the date and condition. British half-crowns before 1947 are silver and worth substantially more than the ones dated 1947 and later. The ones before 1920 are sterling silver, worth more than the 50% silver ones of 1920-1946. But post a date if you want an accurate evaluation.
Your question is a bit confusing because a half-penny and a crown are two very different coins. In the old coinage system England used before 1968, a pound sterling contained 240 pence, so a half-penny was worth 1/480 of a pound. On the other hand, a crown was worth a quarter of a pound, or 60 pence - 120 times as much. Assuming you have a half-penny because it was a far more common coin, it would retail for less than a dollar in average condition.
No. All British predecimal coinage is no longer Legal Tender. The 1965 British Crown is probably worth more as a collectible coin.
At present, it's worth a little more than $11.
A pound of gold is worth more than half a pound of gold.
Neither, they are worth the same.
It's still worth 50 cents no more than that
None of the bicentennial Half dollars made for general circulation are worth more than face value. Only Proof and collectors coins sold from the US Mint are worth more.
None of the Bicentennial half dollar coins made for general circulation contain any silver or are worth more than face value. Only Proof and collectors coins sold from the US Mint are worth more.
