It is a Sixpence but no such thing as a half-Shilling. A Sixpence (or tanner or 6d) was worth half a 'bob' (Shilling worth 12 pence) but was never named a half-shilling.

Still good ID, it a 1817 British Sixpence.

Oh..... when I was in England and Scotland on vacation I heard that used for a SixPence a few times cause it was "half of a shilling". Being an ugly American I just assumed that was a common name for it .......
I collect foreign coins and always check out discontinued ones when travelling.
I had also saw the reference on Wikipedia, in the very first sentence.

Was probably written by a Yank, eh?!
Sorry about that......

Interesting discussion, surprised anyone would say Half-Shilling, maybe half a Shilling (but strange), but my Dad's generation who used them never heard of such a thing. It was a Sixpence or 'Tanner'. I have collected coins since I was a kid & this is the first time I have heard of it, its not in any books I own.
Wikipedia strikes again
