1905 Halfcrown Edward VII Silver Coin

Key date: the 1905 Halfcrown is the lowest mintage issue in the King Edward VII Halfcrown series, with just 166,006 struck.

1905 Halfcrowns feature George William de Saulles' uncrowned coinage head of Edward VII, used on all UK coins issued during this monarch's short reign. This is paired with a reverse by the same artist showing a crowned and quartered shield of arms design, encircled by a garter.

• Made from .925 sterling silver by the Royal Mint, then based at Royal Mint Court in London
• Scarce and sought-after currency coin: a key piece for collectors of British Halfcrowns
