The 1836 Groat - William IVThe Silver Groat was re-issued in 1836 and 1837 after a suggestion by politician Joseph Hume, MP (1777-1855) which got the four-pence coin a nickname of a 'Joey' (although the name was later passed on to the silver threepence). SCBC: 3837.
Besides being produced in circulation as Silver, there was also a Proof, Plain Edge Proof and Gold Proof.
The Reverse shows a seated Britannia, date and denomination as FOUR PENCE.
The Obverse shows a portrait of a bare head portrait of William IV. (in Latin as Gulielmus IIII)Image credit: M J Hughes Coins.
