Description: This listing is for the photographed 1874 Great Britain Silver Threepence, as pictured. While not certified as a proof, we believe this to be a lightly circulated proof. The surface shows no signs of cleaning or modification, while it retains a clearly proof-like surface and sheen . These Threepence pieces are minted in 92.5% silver. Only 4,432,000 total minted in 1874, and only 4,488 prooflike minted in 1874. Mint Location: London, England Mintage: 4 ,488 Composition: 92.5% silver Diameter: 16 mm (a bit smaller than a US dime) During the reign of Queen Victoria, threepence coins were produced both for Maundy use and for normal circulation in all years between 1838 and 1901 except 1847, 1848, and 1852. Threepences were produced both with the "young head" (1838-87) and with the "Jubilee head" (1887-93), inscribed VICTORIA D G BRITANNIAR REGINA F D, while those produced with the "old head" (1893-1901) are inscribed VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP. This coin is of the Jubilee head variety.
