Hello Ivy. Well spotted. Thanks for letting me know. Yeah .... you're right. From 1920 to the end of 1946 the British coins were 0.500 silver. Up to the end of 1919, the coins were sterling silver i.e. 0.925. The costs of World War One and Two drained the U.K. exchequer, so they had to cut back on silver. My mistake. I listen to a lot of music when typing .... including an American country rock band: Asleep at the Wheel. That says it all ......
