A Crown (Five Shillings) was a large coin made of silver, or in later years, copper-nickel, and of silvery appearance, approximately 38.5 mm in diameter. A Halfpenny was a copper or bronze coin approximately 25.5 mm in diameter. There were 2 Halfpennies to a Penny, 12 Pence to a Shilling and Five Shillings to a Crown. These coins are now redundant in all of the Commonwealth countries that were using them.
