Way back when, flat caps used to cost sixpence.
A flat cap is sometimes called a sixpence because it became popular among working-class men in the early 20th century who would commonly store a sixpence coin in the hat's lining for good luck. The term likely originated from this association with the coin.

I've collected a few Irish caps that work well in the weather of Seattle, Wa., and I've learned a little lore along the way. What most people refer to as an Irish cap is one of two different types usually made of wool with the front of the crown attached to a bill or visor by a snap or button. The most common type is made from a single piece of fabric sewn together along its edges. This type is called a one-piece or flat cap. It can be traced back to the 14th century, when the English government, trying to stimulate wool consumption, issued an edict that all men and boys in Britain and Ireland must wear a wool cap or be fined. The flat cap was an economical way to produce a useful hat. The nobility were exempted from the edict, which may be the source of the flat cap's reputation as a working man's hat. The second type is made of wedge-shaped segments sewn together and joined at the top to a cloth button. This type has roots in the Irish countryside and is considered the true Irish cap. They are also sometimes called apple caps because, viewed from the top, the panels resemble a segmented apple. They are further defined as 4-, 6- or 8-piece caps depending on the number of panels. A cap of moderate volume with a reinforced bill is simply called an Irish cap. A more voluminous cap with a softer bill made only of layers of fabric is either called a newsboy cap (crown snapped down to the bill) or a baker-boy cap (no snap).
there are several military hats: le béret which is a round, visorless cap(English: beret), the bonnet de police(a flat-folding headdress called forage cap in British English, garisson cap in American English), le képi (a cap with a flat circular top and a visor / peak) still used in parades notably by the French Foreign Legion.
The British Sixpence was known as a "Tanner". The Australian Sixpence was known as a "Zack".
