The 1834 Sixpence - William IVSilver sixpence of King William IV minted at the Royal Mint in London. Diameter 19mm and weight 2.8g. SCBC 3836. Variations include a large date and there is a milled edge proof.
As the size of the 1834 sixpence was about that of the half-sovereign, to prevent confusion the 1834 half-sovereign was reduced in diameter from 19.4mm to 17.9mm, although the weight remained the same. The public didn't like the idea, so the half-sovereign returned to its normal diameter the following year.
The Obverse shows the bare head of William IV facing right. It was designed by William Wyon.
The edge is plain. Note that the proof version has a milled edge. Legend "GULIELMUS IIII D:G: BRITANNIAR: REX F:D:".
The Reverse shows the crowned words "SIX PENCE" inside a wreath of laurel and oak. Below the date, 1834.Image credit: Museums Victoria
